This is Michele Mar, the sister of his good friend from Christ the King High School, Kevin Mar.
I was so happy to have spoken to Pete a few days before he passed. It had been decades since last seeing or speaking with him. The last I saw Pete was when he was doing what he loved- performing (at a high school dance)! I reached out to him regarding the passing of Kevin (from 2018); it was a heartwarming chat we shared. His send- off to me was a text of urls linking me to some of his past and latest pieces of music- which I enjoyed.
Although I will never know him as well as Kevin, it is certain that he was a true friend: patient and kind.
It gives me delight that Kevin met him at the "pearly gates" and they can resume as old pals again. I'd like to think that my talk with him just prior to his passing was an extension of "Kevin" preparing him for his new "welcome" .
Pete- thanks for your gift of heart and music..Play On!
