At the age of 16 he left for Foliette, Ontario to work at a bush camp for his uncle Tom. Peter had many jobs over the years and was a jack of all trades; however, he decided on being his own boss and started P&W Delivery. After retiring from moving furniture he drove a Canada Post truck and kept us all updated on the current road conditions. Peter loved the outdoors and it kept him busy whether it was for the fishing and hunting trips, work on his garden or watching his grandchildren play sports.
