My dearest Virginia and family. To know you is to love you, to have witnessed your strength and faith has been a true testimony of the beautiful woman you are. Walking with you on your journey with Peter these last few years has been heartbreaking. Learning how you have dealt with each step… steps of faith and love of God knowing He always had you in His palm. For you and your boys now can all be rest assured that Peter is flying with angels for his pain and suffering now longer exist.
Know you will continue to be in my prayers always and hopes that you will be able to continue on with your life.. my true sister of God. May His love always blanket you. Love you dearly

Sorry to hear of Peter’s passing, I just saw this online, and just wanted to offer my condolences. Peter and I were friends in mid to late 70 during disco era, I met his wife when they first started dating (Ginnie) so I am sad to ear of his loss-He was a good dancer and tried to team me to no success but we had fun going out to clubs. Thank you Wayne-845-519-5930
