Steve, Cathy & Nancy,
I just can't believe the news I just received on the loss of Peter. Steve, it seems like yesterday that I watched over Peter when we all were on the Island and I remember him to be an absolute joy. What a neat and talented youngster. Losing a son has to be one of the most difficult things that a parent will ever encounter.
Our hearts and prayers go out to you.

Cathy and Steve, I am so very sorry for your loss of Peter. I still remember him as a little blonde boy when you hosted those politcal gatherings for Don Riegle and Jeff Padden. I remember the puzzeled look on his face when I called his mom "Spider". He's at peace now, no more pain. Grandma Helen helped him cross over. Nothing can fill the hole in your hearts. Try to remember and be grateful for the time you had him rather than the loss for his leaing. Peace and Love, Sandy Mullins

It has been so long since I have seen any of you guys. My condolences to Pete's friends and family.

Pete was present for, and possibly the architect of, many of my teenage and formative 'firsts'. These things, like badges, were worn proudly. I will always carry them with me and they can never be taken away from either of us. Safe travels.

The world has lost a kind and creative soul. Pete helped influence me through his music and inclusive nature. I won't forget the good times in Chicago, Ybor City, Detroit, and of course, Ypsilanti.

Pete, I will always remember you. From babysitting next door from your moms...playing d&d, introducing me to the Shelter, Denny's green coffee and blueberry muffins late at night. The serenity of your Dad's backyard with the willows whispering. Enjoying watching your passion for music and pursue Backspace, and IEC. I will miss you, and keep our friendship in my heart forever. Michelle, I am so happy that Peter found you, thank you for making his life happy. My heart bleeds for you. Cathy, I can't imagine your pain. Mr Kornblum, I'm so sorry for your lose, all of our loses. Peter was a wonderful friend to me, he was intelligent and creative. Many of us will miss him dearly. We will see you again.
