So sorry to hear of Pete’s passing. We were good friends years ago. He and my husband Dan were hunting and fishing buddies. Lots of memories!!
Sad to learn of Pete’s passing. I have many fond memories of Pete and Gladys. He was a kind and gentle man. He his smile was always a delight to observe.
Hi, I’m one of Pete’s step children, Gerry Anderson. Thank you all so much for your postings! I do remember Dan and Kay McGill. I had also went fishing & hunting with Dan, Jim, and Pete as a child. I’m blessed to have known both of them. Lots of good memories!
Thank you Kay, I hope you and your family are all doing well!
