    Dear Matt, Dave, Jess, Anne, Tom, and Mike, I was so saddened to hear of your Dad's sudden passing. As a brother in law, he was an awesome source of strength and guidance when I'd call him for his opinion on things I was dealing with, especially taxes and the grandparents ( all 4 of them ). I will forever miss his good humor and his contagious laugh. Hang on to all your favorite family memories and good times with him. He now has rejoined with your mom and his family loved ones in God's heavenly choir. What an awesome addition. You are all in my prayers. Peter, I am grateful you were part of my life. Rest in peace, dear brother, til we meet once again. Love always, Aunt Martha, and familyMartha

    We always looked forward to our times with Pete. He was interested in all of his friends and wanted to know all the happenings in their lives. Pete had a wonderful sense of humor and an award-winning laugh. Pete enjoyed his life in Florida and also in the Saint Louis area. We were the very fortunate ones to be Pete's friends for almost thirty years. His spirit will remain in all of our lives forever. May God grant Pete's many loved ones the gift of peace, serenity, and faith. He was a true original.
