Lynne, Tyanna, and family;
Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you reflect on your dad's/grandpa's life. Hold tight to the memories and know he will always be in your heart to grasp anytime you need.
With Love,
Hollie Landreman and family
My siblings and I have countless stories about Peter -- about Peter and about the many, many vehicles that we acquired from him in the 1970s and 80s. Surely we were among his most frequent and loyal "customers." But all that was based upon our friendship with Peter, a friendship of many decades. He was a true friend to our family, and we all felt the same about him, particularly our brother, Ben.
Condolences to his family.
And thank you, Peter.

(formerly of Racine)
