I am so sorry to have just heard today that Peter has passed away. Peter was my one good friend and co-worker at Eaton's and we did try to keep in touch for a lot of years after Eaton's. It was difficult at times with Peter's travels and I regret very much that we only recently lost touch with each other. Not enough space to say it all. My heart goes out to Peter's family. He was a good man and his memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew him. Peter, I will miss you! - Posted by: Wayne Pierce (Co-Worker) on: Apr 26, 2010
