Peter will be lovingly remembered by his wife Rowlayna; daughter Britt; sons, Sean of New York and Derek and Beau of Austin, TX; two sisters, Diane (Hannu) Maki and Debbie James; and mother-in-law Pat Griffiths. He will also be sorely missed by his nieces and nephews and special friend Billie Luke. Peter was predeceased by his parents, Norma and Vincent James; brother Paul; and father-in-law Al Griffiths. Peter was born in Brandon, MB on September 9, 1943 and moved to Winnipeg with his family in 1958, attending Silver Heights Collegiate during his high school years. He spent the past 19 years employed with Finn Woodworks, where he developed many close friendships. Peter loved spending time at the lake, hunting, watching car racing, hockey and baseball games, and his newly added interest...the game show channel, taking long walks and spending time with his Burmese cat Pachabel.
