  • Pete and I were both living in Alapocas when we attended WFS. As a result we saw a good bit of each other during that time. We also attended Camp Kingsley in Maine at the same time. We were good friends.

    Pete was a bright caring person. I was fortunate to have him as a friend.

  • I am so sorry to hear of Peter’s passing. I remember him well from when we were palling around in 6th, 7th and 8th grades.
    A thinker was Peter, and it was fun to try to match wits with him at that age. Sorry that we lost touch over the years, but we did have a nice encounter some years ago. He will remain in my memory. Rest in peace.
