We are family members of Peter's childhood pen pal, Emil Pinta. We just learned of Peter's passing and wanted to extend our condolences. We had the pleasure of meeting Peter, Cynthia, and son and family at church when visiting Oahu a few years ago with Emil and his wife, Susan. The photos on this site show the lovely spirit of Peter. May he rest now in God's loving arms. With thanks for Peter's life, Pamela & John Montgomery, Bedford, Pennsylvania.

Dearest Cynthia and Ohana,

I loved you and Peter and the Boys...especially when I got to Play with the Rottweilers in the back Yard.  We share many precious memories that will always remain!  I am grateful to have been a part of his life and yours.  I wish you joy in knowing that his Spirit will never die as he is within all of us.  

With much love and many hugs,
Doris (Ingrid)

Dear Cynthia,  I met your wonderful husband a few years ago when my brother, Bill Burke took me to some of the events that he and the music group shared.  I remember his smile.  He smiled with his whole being....a truly wonderful, loving and joyful presence.  My  prayers are with you and your family over this loss.

Our Condolences to you Cynthia, Peter, Paul & Patrick and family. We will  surely miss our brother in Christ. He was our leader for music ministry with KaniKalipa No Iesu Kristo. There is a big void in our group. We will see him again, in Eternity where we will praise the Lord again together.
All of us at Kanikapila No Iesu Kristo.

Cynthia.. Remembering the good times we had with the Ke Akua Bible study group . Peter playing the ukulele & leading as in songs. He was such a wonderful brother in CHRIST.. We'll miss him a lot, at our Fuel Breakfest. Boy,   he could eat a lot. Love in CHRIST...

Aloha e Patrick and the rest of the ohana.  I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your father.  I remember when I used to come over to the house in high school.  My funniest memory of him was when your mom was cooking filet mignon for us.  Your dad's meat was tartar and I needed mine to be well done, so I cooked mine some more.  I had never seen a steak tartar before.  Good times!  I will miss him.  I pray God will comfort you at this time, and provide comfort for you when you need it.

Dear Cynthia and family, My sincere condolence for your loss. May his memory live in your hearts. Love from Charlotte Yamamoto

Dear Cynthia and family, My thoughts and prayers go out to you.  Peter lives on in the memories you have of him.  God Bless.

Dear Cindy and Ohana: 
It is with great sadness that I have to say Aloha E Ke Akua to my classmate and friend, Peter.  Mahalo for sharing some time on the mainland trips with us and also at the class reunions.  He will always have a special place in Larry and my memory and heart.  And you, too, Cindy...your graciousness and loveliness will be remembered.  So sorry that we can't fly in to share with all of you but know that we care.  I know he is resting with the Lord.  Me Ke Aloha Hedy Luna Harrison-Anduha and Larry Anduha.

Peter will always be a special and positive memory in my life. He was a gentle soul who always had a smile and willingness to help others. God bless his family at this time. Rest in peace.

Dear Brother In Christ Peter, we will miss you. You brought us so much joy and laughter. We will see you again, when we join you with the Lord.Thank you for the memories, Peter... Aloha for now,
