I am sending up prayers for the most wonderful uncle a person could ever wish for. From the time when I was a little girl through the nearly seven decades of my life my Uncle Peter has been an example of wit, brilliance, abiding faith and generosity. I will always treasure his stories and the panache with which he told them with. I learned so much from him and his love of God, music, language, history and his Italian heritage. l will always cherish my memories of him. I will always miss him. He adored his family, all the generations of them and always made certain you knew it. May he know peace and comfort in the light of God. There is any empty place at this earthly table but the angels must be rejoicing at the stories he will tell at the heavenly banquets. Love you with all my heart Uncle Peter.
