I knew Pete, his brothers & mother Sharon for many years. He was a gentle and very sweet young man and his mother will enjoy his company in heaven!!!
I am so sorry to hear of Peteys’ passing. I remember being around him many years ago. He was stubborn but very strong willed. He was ready to help anyone at anytime. Rest in peace my friend and tell your Mom and Dad hello for me. Till we all meet again.

I miss my daddy. So much. 😭
I still think about you. It’s hard to forget the man who did everything in his power to make sure me, my brother and sisters had a chance at a better life than he did. I don’t know if I’m doing enough sometimes. I get so confused, and I can’t say I understand some of the things you told me. Advice gets foggy after years, and I worry some days I’ll start forgetting what you look or sound like. So I play videos to keep your memory fresh.
Rest easy dad,
Lyttyl.
