  • We learned to love Pete he was always so joyful and loved to talk about His Lord and Savior.. So many times we talked about the Lord what He was doing in our lives and have prayed together. We always loved his company we had him over for supper so many times and he loved to have us over too. He sure loved the Lord that was always his desire to serve Him with all his heart.. Our deepest Sympathy to the family and friends.. we will pray for you may God be your comfort and peace knowing that's where he went home to be with Jesus.. May Psalm 23 be a real comfort to you all. - Posted by: Walter and Anita Dueck (Went to the same church became real close friends.. at Salem Community Bible church. ) on: Mar 26, 2016
