Grandpa was the BEST grandpa that I could have ever asked for for my two boys... my dad passed away before they had a chance to know him but Peter more than made up for it. He was kind and patient and he fiercely loved both the boys - they idolized him. Rest in peace Grandpa - you will be missed... - Posted by: Kim Hastings (Daughter-in -Law) on: Mar 26, 2013
