Papa (Peter) was a proud father of five children; Lisa Ann (Anton), David Anthony (Mariam), Christopher (Tina), Bradford (Kimberly Ann), and Kimberly Lynn. He was blessed with seven beautiful grandchildren; David, Analisa, Trent, Trevor, Gabriella, Tyler, and Juliet Rose. Peter was a loving brother of Joseph, Mary Therese (Nick), Salvatore (deceased), Anthony (deceased); and a proud uncle to Tony, Matty, Jennifer, Theresa, Angela, Danny, and Gina.
Papa had great passion for Life, Church, Faith in Christ, Family, Friends, and Food. Peter served his country proud as an army reserve. Papa loved family settings and gatherings. He loved to cook and entertain, he was very passionate about FOOD. Papa spent the last five years battling heart and kidney disease. Even through his battle he was always the "rock" of our family. In the many hospital visits; you'd never know he was a patient. Always smiling, always positive, and still reaching out his hand to help those around him. Papa you may be gone, but never forgotten. You have made your mark in life and leave behind a legacy of unconditional love, steadfast patience, and your memories will continue to be the rock of our family. Papa you will be tremendously missed and always cherished.
