Sorry for your loss Petroski family.  I went to San Jac with Pete.  There were a group of us that "terrorized" North Shore, in a good way.  Pete was the leader, he had a big booming voice and always loved to have fun. I asked Pete to be in my wedding.  He was awesome student and graduated from Texas A&M.  He was fun to be with. He'll be missed. RIP 'Pete'.

Something made me think of Pete"Mr. Petroski" today. I'm in shock and my heart is heavy! I had no idea of his passing. I worked for Pete several years ago over as the receptionist at Vahldiek, Cano & Petroski. He was such a sweet man. He was full of life and laughter. May he continue to Rest in Peace. My deepest condolences to his wife and daughters, which I knew he was very proud of.

Well, a week from today will be 3 months since Pete passed.  It still seems so unreal to me, feels like it was only yesterday.  Everyday I think about the conversation we were having just moments before he passed so unexpectedly.  Me, my wife and daughter continue to pray for the family and loved ones that lost such an honorable man, friend, father , husband, son and brother... and an all around exciting guy to be around.

Pete's last few hours here in this life were spent talking about his  daughters, wife and family.. he left this life professing his love for  everyone dear to him.  As I could tell by what was on his heart and mind.  I can only hope that my girls know the same whenever it's my time to go home.

May you be blessed, find peace and feel His love during these difficult times.

Jeremiah 29:11

Jennie, Katie, Lauren and Danielle,

Oh, how I loved your husband and your father.  He was the brother that my parents never gave me.  Pete was always a man I could count on to be there in all our family situations and give solutions to how to fix almost anything.  Jennie and I started our journey together with our men 28 years ago and I will always cherish how Pete was the only male allowed to share our bridal party cabin. He was a girl's best guy friend.  Cooked us delicious pancakes and helped all of us get ready for the big day:)  My later precious memories would be how Pete was always there for my mom during some difficult years.  Not only there but always up beat and sharing a "Pete laugh" that only he could give and lighten up the entire room with.  Pete was always there for my children...especially when it came to a "game day".  He was the uncle there taking the best pictures and making new friends so easily.  Our last football game Pete came to capture pictures of Sean doing his thing (which he did) but took so many great pictures of the cheerleaders that they used them in the middle school yearbook.  Those mom's are still asking about my brother-in-law. Pete had such an incredible techie gift that he was always the first to be called to solve a computer question.  Pete's life was such a blessing to everyone that he encountered and his kindness and goodness will be cherished forever.  He is a man that is a role model for my own husband and sons to follow in.  I saw this verse and it touched my heart as we all continue to grieve for the loss of this great man.
"Life is a blend of love and loss, but love is always stronger...Love lives on forever."
Your light will continue Pete through your beautiful daughters and wife and all the lives you have so graciously touched and I will see you again my friend in a place where there are no more tears, no more sadness but life eternal with our Heavenly Father.  I love you Pete and thank Jesus for your beautiful life.

My heart is still heavy and feels as if it has been pierced when I think about the loss of Pete.  I remember him as a towheaded little boy with a sweet smile who grew into a loving  man.  Although we didn't see each other the past few years because we were all busy with our families, children, and life, he was such a treasure.  His voice, laugh, and smile will forever be embedded in my memory. 
 Aunt Margaret

All of your fellow rehabbers at TWRC are keeping you and your family in our thoughts during this sad time.

To Pete's Family,   We wanted you to know that Pete was a fine, honest, good man!  We have always appreciated his advise and great business judgement.

MAY GOD BE WITH YOU!
With Love and Respect,  Jon and Christine Sipe

Rest in peace Pete. From our family to yours. I know my father would have wanted to be there at your funeral and he is sorry he was not.

I met Pete at the local YMCA.  He always gave 100% in his workouts but was always willing to help others who were having problems.  He helped me a couple of times.   He was a true gentleman.  My condolences to the family.

Pete was always one of my champions during junior high and high school and we shared many hours studying together.  I cheered when he got his degree in accounting - of all things - and again when he got his law degree.  I still have the leather wallet with my name on it that he made for my birthday so many years ago.
My deepest condolences to the entire Petroski family.  My thought and prayers are with you all.

My heartfelt prayers are with those Pete left behind especially for his dear beautiful wife, his three darling daughters, his father & mother; the rest of his family and numerous friends. A model man who was balanced in body, mind and spirit he touched an abundance of lives. May he rest in peace!

I am so sorry to hear of Pete's passing, and know you are all in my thoughts and prayers during this time.  Pete's Dad Daniel and my Dad John Boriskie were best friends growing up.  We are saddened today, but our Faith tells us we will all be together again for eternity in Heaven.  Love to all, Cathy Rasmussen (Boriskie)

My prayers are to you and your family. May the Lord's peace surround you.

Pete was an excellent attorney and full of spirit.  He cared deeply for his wife, children and his parents.  I am honored for having known him.  To his family and friends, I am sorry for your great loss.

I had the pleasure of practicing law with Pete many years ago.  He was so smart and such a fine lawyer.  He was also a fine man.  My prayers to his family for your loss.

I played baseball for Spring Branch and faced Pete many times in high school.  He was a true competitor and a fierce pitcher at Northbrook.  Pete was full of smiles and always complimentary of the competition.  

Pete's legacy will be one for all to admire. My deepest condolences to his family.

I will miss seeing Pete's smiling face at the Y.  He was always such an encouraging figure.  The Y will not be the same without him.  I am deeply sorry for your loss.  I will keep Pete and your family in my prayers.

Dear Petroski Family,
Thank you for sharing such a warm, caring, generous man with the rest of us. After briefly meeting Pete, it was obvious his life was defined by his family. He will be truly missed and irreplaceable in this world. 

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Prayers and healing thoughts to the entire Petroski Family.  He will be missed a great deal.

Pete was a genuinely nice guy with a great smile.  I am so sorry for your loss.

Jenny and Girls, You know our thoughts and prayers are with you now and always.

Hey Pete, thanks for your smile, your friendship, your integrity. The world needs more folks like you...

Jennie, Girls and family, our prayers go out to you at this time. May the Lord wrap His arms around you and comfort you...Amen.

Dear Petroski family,
We are sorry for your the loss. My husband I met Pete in Blanco.  He was the first person at the party to welcome us and introduce himself.  He was a true gentlemen, with a warmth and zest for life.  We enjoyed listening to him talk of his daughters and thier accomplishments.  He was just a cool guy as well.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and the family in this time of sorrow. May your memories comfort you.

Pete - Your life accomplishments are a true example of how you lived life and treated people.  "Good work my friend."  To this day I still look for your blue Bronco when I drvie by your old house on Campbell.

To the Petroski Family, I am truly sorry for your loss.  I had the privledge to play baseball with Pete since we were small boys.  Pete always played hard and wanted to pitch in the big games.  I know now he is the starting pitcher for a team of Angels. To this day, I can still see Pete with his huge smile and hear his booming laugh.  My life has been richer for knowing such a fine person.  God Bless you all!

Our Prayers are with you, May God Bless you.

I am very sorry to hear about this.  I worked out with Pete at the Met for many years.  I had him in my Court several times and found to always be prepared and a wonderful advocate for his clients.  I pray that God's peace be with you during this difficult time.--Judge Ken Wise, 334th District Court

Thinking and praying for you and your family Jennie.

My deepest condolences to the family.  Pete was always very enthusiastic and a joy to be around.  May God comfort you during this time.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Chase Bank

Our family has many good memories of Pete, starting with our daughters going to Bear Creek United Methodist church preschool together, and being together in the same tribe in the YMCA Princess Guides program. Pete was caring, passionate, and fun to be around. He always had a very positive outlook on life. Will miss not seeing him at the Y. Our deepest condolences go out to Jennie and the girls. May the Lord give you comfort and peace in this time of sorrow.

With deep sympathy,  Dennis and Sally Feist and family

So sorry to hear this sad news. We are thinking of you during this time of grief.

To the Petroski Family - Pete was a wonderful guy, always laughing but also smart, caring and a great friend.  Treasure your precious family memories of him during this difficult time.  Our prayers are with you for comfort and peace.  Tim & Shannon Follis

Wishing Jennifer and the rest of the family love & peace.

I am very grateful for Pete and his family.  My parents were one of the many whom Pete did not say "No".  He was there for them when they needed him for advice and as a friend.  He will be sorely missed and my heart goes out to Jennie and the girls.  God bless his soul.

I met Pete in college, when I pledged Sigma Chi. He was a lot of fun, and his reputation as a lawyer in Houston was well known. I will miss him.

Pete will be so missed by everyone.  He was absolutely the life of the party scene in Houston Repertoire Ballet's "Nutcracker". All of Danielle's ballet family sends to the Petroski family our deepest sympathy and love.

He was the definition of life and my friend..... Rich Tyler

He was a good guy. Deep sympathies to his family.

So sorry to hear about this.  You've got my prayers.  Pete was the life of a party.  I can't say enough good things about him. He'll be missed.

I'm still in shock hearing of Pete's passing.  Pete was always a joy to be around, and he will be truly missed by all who knew him.  RIP, my friend.

The Dirrty Swamp Cookers will miss Pete and all of his smiles and energy for many years to come. - Dirrty Boss

What an incredibly good friend and person.He was so positive no matter what was thrown at him. Definitely the kind of guy you'd want on your side in a lawsuit, a fight or a limbo contest. I have so many good memories of Pete as do all who he used to barbecue with out at the World Championship Barbecue. We will so definitely miss him. Our very best to the Petroski family and you and Pete are in our prayers.

Our prayers for strength are with Pete's family as they deal with this great loss.  We have many fond memories of Pete from the Met in boot camp, and enjoyed his enthusiam for martial arts and any athletic endeavor, but most of all, he loved his girls.  He was confident and manly enough to 'wear pink' if that's what his girls required of "Mr Dad".  Pete will be missed greatly.

To all of Dan's family:  My love, thoughts and prayers are with you during this most difficult time.  It was a blessing to have called "Peteroski" my friend.  Gone but not forgotten!

Pete has been a wonderful colleague and friend through good and bad times ... even this past Friday when I called him with a legal crisis.  Anyone who knew Pete knows he loved his family and cherished their love and support, too.  Pete has passed from this life, but his Spirit remains in our hearts.  May the peace that passes all understanding be with Pete's family and friends now and forever.

Pete, the Chief of our daughter's YMCA Shawnee Indian Princess tribe. Pete was a great guy who loved his family. We had some great times during our campouts, and I will always treasure the conversations we shared. Pete was always up for an adventure, and he led the way with his great laugh.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you Jennie, Danielle, Lauren and Katie.

I had the pleasure of knowing Daniel since Pine Shadows Elementary, and even ended up in Aggieland around the same time.  I'll always remember him as one of the good guys.  My condolences to the Petroski family.  I'm truly sorry for your loss, and ours.

We are very sorry for your loss. All of your family will be in our prayers. We know the pain you must be in. We have been there with our Danny's loss. I knew Pete when he was a boy and as a young man in high school. He was a great athletic.
He will always be remembered!   
Bob, Sally, Robert, and David Hunter. Cypress Fairbanks, Tx.

Pete was an amazing guy. He and my husband, Richard, had many long conversations. Pete would do pretty much anything Richard asked him to in boot camp at the Downtown Club at the Met. He was just an all-around great guy. We will miss him dearly.

I am so sorry for your loss!  Pete had a huge impact at the Y.  It just won't be the same without him.  His smile, laugh and love for his family shined so bright.  You will be missed!  Petroski family let me know if I can do anything to help!  Anything!

Our deepest and heartfelt condolences to the Petroski Family.  May our Lord blanket you with peace and comfort through your time of loss.  You will be in the OpenDoor Church families' thoughts and prayers.

You're in the hearts of others who care about you and pray for you as God eases your sorrow and replaces it with sweet memories of Pete. You are in our prayers. God Bless

To the Petroski family, you are heavy on my heart and have been since the moment of this accident and tragic loss.

I was the one with Pete when he passed and had the honor of spending the evening sitting around the fire with him discussing family, being a husband and father to our daughters, animals and wildlife - the last hours prior to his passing. 

Now Memorial Day will forever be a weekend of remembrance for my friend Pete within our family.

Miss ya Pete!

I remember Daniel in high school as an incredibly smart and down to earth nice guy.  I was shocked and saddened to learn of his passing.  My condolences to his family and all of his friends who loved him.  He will be missed.

I remember Pete from my first year coaching baseball at NHS.  He was a fierce competitor and a great young man.  My prayers go out to the family.

Even though I haven't kept in touch with Pete, I have many good memories of him from high school. Petroski family, we share your loss.

I knew Pete from high school, he was a very nice guy.  My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

So very sorry to hear of Petes passing. My prayers to his entire family.

Saddened to hear of Petes passing.. We will be praying for God to give you the strength, wisdom, courage, and understanding you need during this time.... 
Like most people haven't kept up with classmates much, but several memories of Pete from Northbrook... Again, condolences....

Mitzi and I were both friends of Dan's at Northbrook and we will keep Dan, his family and all of our Northbrook friends in our prayers as we deal with this loss.

I too went to school with Pete. I'm sorry to hear we have lost another classmate. To the family. I'm sorry for your loss. RIP Pete.

I'm so sorry for your loss Petroski family.
I'd like to take this time to share one of my many memories of Pete.  It was after a high school dance, I asked Pete where he learned to dance; he replied with something like I don't know how to dance but I'm not missing out on the fun. I don't know why I remember this but I do.  Thanks Pete for many great memories.

I knew Dan as great guy at Northbrook HS.  Though we have not kept in touch since those days, I'm sure he positively touched many people.  I am saddened that another Raider has been taken from us.

Pete was a funny and smart guy who set a great example for us in school. My condolences to the family.

To Pete's family and friends:  May God bless you and hold you in His arms during this difficult time.  I was proud to call Pete a friend in high school.  He will be missed.
