PIdge was one of my dearest friends throughout high school and the GREAT University of Arizona! From teasing and messing around with our teachers in high school to moving to AZ for college, PJ always had a desire to live life to its fullest! He was always such an intellect; so sound in philosophy, politics, science, and any other subject brought up. All in all, Pidge will always be remembered as a friend in the highest regard. We will all miss and love him forever.
