Peter was a faithful member at Holy Martyrs Catholic Church in Medina with a heart of gold always giving and donating. He and his family enjoyed going to Siesta Key in the summertime a tradition he kept doing for years. Whoever came to visit him would be invited to walk with him on the beach which turned out to be five miles…Surprise. In the winter months, he loved hunting and fishing with his buddies. A very proud man of his accomplishments in life and he showed it with his constant work on his home and for the love of his children and grandchildren. His sweetness and contagious laugh will forever be in our hearts.
