Peter brought joy and touched the lives of many. He would light up a room with his smile and cheerful disposition and knew how to make people laugh. He was very kind, caring, generous, and helped anyone in need. He was known by his friends as the life of the party.

Peter was a motorcycle enthusiast and enjoyed riding with friends. Other past times he enjoyed were skiing, traveling, gardening, reading, listening to rock and roll music, and spending time outdoors. Above all, he most cherished time with his children and grandchildren.

Peter is preceded in death by his parents along with his brother Gary. He is survived by children Jennifer, Brittany (Charlie), Autumn, and Kimberly along with grandchildren Kaden, Adalyn, and Keiran. He is further survived by his sister Lynette, nieces, nephews, and wonderful friends.
