Dear Nancy,
I was saddened to hear of your loss. I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to be in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves a beautful space in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love.
Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.
My prayers and love are with you and your son at this time.

We remember Pete fondly while working with him for several years at the Harris Bank. He was a great guy, great sense of humor and a wonderful resource for Harris. He had a great love of his family as we often talked about them at work (break time only :) ).
Our regards to his lovely wife and daughter and all his family.
Prayers and kind thoughts.

Our deepest condolences and prayers go out to you Aunt Nancy and Bernie and to all his friends and family. I know he will be missed, but I am grateful that he is at peace. I can see all his passed loved ones welcoming him Home. Which there are many, including my Mom, give her a hug and kiss for me Uncle Pete :)..I have so many great childhood memories, but my favorites are your wedding day to Aunt Nancy and when I would come over to babysit Bernie and visit with Grandma Egan, I loved her screened-in front porch. Sorry that we won't be able to attend the services, but know that we are thinking of you and your family. Love and may God comfort your heavy hearts xoxoxo
