Peter loved his family deeply and had the gift of music, laughter and valued his Irish heritage. His love of horses brought him much enjoyment. He always brought a smile to everyone's face with his endless array of jokes, story telling and wonderful voice raised in an Irish Tune. We will miss you Dad and you will always be in our hearts.
