We always enjoyed our time with Uncle Pete and Aunt Eileen. They would join me for coffee many times when I worked at SAAN. I knew I would miss those days when SAAN closed. Many times I have wished for those days again. I am very happy that I got to spend a few minutes with my uncle a few weeks prior to his passing. Prayers and thoughts are with the family. - Posted by: Harold and Marge Trapp (niece to Peter) on: May 04, 2016

Uncle Pete cared for his siblings, and my mom, his sister, was on the receiving end of his care and concern. As a mechanic, he would help my mom with car purchases and repairs. I am deeply appreciative to him for this tangible care of our family, especially in difficult times. Love and prayers for the family. - Posted by: Mark Doerksen (Nephew) on: May 03, 2016
