OH Audrey, I just heard of Pete's passing, and can't tell you how sorry I am. You were a special couple to Don and I. A not to be missed visit, when we got back to Ottawa, if we could. Sorry it was not possible on my visit last fall. I hold you in my prayers, and know the
Good Lord will hold you in the palm of his hand. MUCH lOVE Dawn

Our thoughts are definitely with you. I first met Peter while I was stationed in Glovertown, Nfld. in the early 1960's. Peter came to Glovertown twice, to testify as an expert witness in one of my cases. Peter was always professional and friendly. He will be greatly missed by many.

Deepest sympathy to Audrey in the sudden passing of Peter. Peter was such a kind and well mannered gentleman and faithful friend, dating back to "L" Div. Ch'town PEI in the 1950's. He will be missed by our family, Amy, Dale & Debora.

The world has lost a wonderful person. A true gentleman in every way. As a child, Audrey and Peter would visit us in PEI, often staying with us for a few days. Their visit was the highlight of my summer. I will never forget his stories, his laugh, the way he always made me feel special.
Dear Audrey, we wish you strength for the days ahead. You are in our thoughts and prayers, Carole and Gord

Audrey, sending you our deepest sympathy. We too have enjoyed many of Peter's stories.
Such a very pleasant person to be around and a true gentleman who will be greatly missed by many. We are sure the void in your life that Peter's passing has created will be most difficult to fill. May all the wonderful memories you have of Peter help you through the difficult days ahead. Blessings Cal and Pat
