Lisa and Family,
My deepest sympathy to you and your family. I still fondly look at pictures of your dad, mom and my mother on their trip to Florida. Your dad was a patient man! They had a wonderful friendship. I still remember your home in Detroit and Paw Paw and mom and I visiting. Time passes but memories will always remain.
Love and God's Blessings,
Sue

All of the residents at Northridge Pines miss Peter very much. He was a very special person, eager to please everyone. He made new residents feel at home. At sing-a-longs he was the leader. He leaves a large hole.
Our condolences go to his family. He will be missed by everyone who knew him. |

On behalf of our grandmother, Irene Holbik, we wanted to say how sorry we are for your loss, and how much Peter brightened Irene's life. He was a caring and loving man, and even though we only met him once, we felt like we knew him. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. |
