Aw, that's terrible news.

A sweet man who herded cats here as well as anyone possibly could.

RIP, Pete. You will be missed.

Oh no! He really took me under his wing at NAHBS Indianapolis. Introduced me to Ben and Dario and other builders. Heck of a guy.

Oh man... God Bless you Pete. Sad to see you go.

I still have a message in my inbox from him titled "Friends are Dear". He was definitely one of the good guys on the forum.

Sad to hear...Pete was a good man. I had the pleasure of meeting him a couple of times. Was it the cancer he had battle the past few years?

Pete had a real love for life, his Family, his friends, fine wine, great bicycles and beautiful cars. He will be missed by many and especially around here.

RIP
