PETER GOOLEY (PETRO GULEY) Suddenly on Sunday, July 9, 2006, Peter Robert Gooley passed away at Seven Oaks Hospital surrounded by family and friends. Peter was born September 6, 1923 in Foley, MB where he spent his early years on the family farm. The majority of his life was spent self-employed in Thompson, MB and throughout the north where he enjoyed fishing and treasure hunting in the local boutique.

The family extends special thanks to his caregivers at Middlechurch Home and the staff at SOGH for their care and concern. Peter will be remembered by all his special friends throughout Manitoba, especially in Thompson and Winnipeg Beach. We will always remember the sound of one of Peter's many Ford trucks rambling down the highway.
