I would like to extend my deepest condolences to Peter's wife, children and family members regarding his recent, sudden passing. I worked with Peter, at MTS, many years ago. He was always a pleasure to deal with as a co-worker and was always a gentleman, no matter what the circumstances. - Posted by: Judy Watts (Former MTS Co-worker) on: Mar 15, 2019

My heartfelt sympathies Aunt Vicki, cousins Peter Jr. (and family) and Nancy. Uncle Peter's passing came with an unexpected surprise, to which I am still processing. I still remember when I first met Uncle Peter, out at my grandparents' farm in Waldersee, Manitoba...I was so little then. So many cherished family get togethers over the decades to reflect upon. May you take comfort and find some reverence over the next period of your lives. My prayers are expressed as you continue forward, during this challenging time. ππ»πΏπ - Posted by: Rose Held (Niece) on: Mar 13, 2019

Deepest condolences to my Aunt Vickie and cousins, Peter Jr. and Nancy. I was shocked to get the terrible news. It seems that everyone in my family circle when I was growing up is forever disappearing! Many thoughts come to mind of the memories of family gatherings that will now be no more but memories. At least we will always have those memories to cherish. Harry Held Jr. - Posted by: Harry Held Jr. (nephew) on: Mar 11, 2019
