Pete (Daddy) was always the life of the party and his smile and laugh were infectious. He was always full of one liner jokes that he thought were hilarious even if you didn’t. That alone made you laugh! He was a kind hearted man that was generous to everyone he met whether you were a friend or a stranger. He was truly a one of a kind man that stood tall behind his own beliefs. There wasn’t much you could say to change his mind but all these things made up this wonderful man who was loved by so many. There are so many things we are going to miss about him..Listening to him sing, the weekly joke texts, and just hearing the words I love you. Rest in peace Daddy. Please know how much you are loved and respected. Until we meet again. Visitation will be held at 6:00 – 8:00 PM on Wednesday, November 11, 2015 at Restland Funeral Home.
