I can only tell you what an influence your father had on my life. As a little boy when he lived with my family Pete would take me with him at times to the beach, or downtown to Bergoff's men's grill for a Halibut Steak Sandwich. In the summer he would take me on the truck he drove for the welding supply company for a day. He delivered gases to the factory where they made O,HENRY candy bars and got me an O,Henry with my lunch. He made one great inpression on me as well that I would never get a TATTOO. I have never been able to tell you guys how much your father meant to me during that time. He was like a Big Brother that I never had. I am so sorry for your loss and feel honored to have known him. You can be sure that Pete will always be in my Prayers.
As he was my 1st cousin, I can sincerely tell you that he was a true Gentleman.
