I worked with Peter at a restaurant named garbonzos in the early 1980's. We had many good times. The last time I had seen him was at Martin's wedding. Pete and I had a game we called chase...He loved to drive hard and fast and so did I.One of the worst and best moments we ever had was when one of us hit a pole in southdale at 7 am on a sat morn...Yea Martin you remember... Peter Only the great ones are taken from us...To get us to realize that every moment is a gift. I love you brother and miss you so - Posted by: james Ross (Friend) on: May 27, 2012

Peter and Shirley; Judy and I are so very sorry to hear of your son's passing. I know that it has been a long and courageous battle for Peter these last few years and, as ourselves being parents, our hearts go out to you at this time of tremendous grief and sorrow. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. May you gain strength and solace in knowing that our good Lord is always there for you during these darkest hours. - Posted by: Ronald S.

My thoughts and prayers are with Peter Andrew's family at this time. All of my memories of Peter date back to simpler and happier times. I do remember a young man with a great smile and a twinkle in his eyes. He passed far too young, but that did not stop him from living a life rich with dear friends, and family. He spent his time here making the world a better place, and we are richer for having had the honour of knowing him. - Posted by: Linda Guest (family friend) on: May 24, 2012

Although I hadn't seen Pete in many years my son and him were close friends from the Gillam and FRC days, a friendship that continued all these years, and I have kept up to date with his illness. It is very sad to lose a child and I feel for his parents, but his suffering is over. - Posted by: Judy Grant (Son was a friend) on: May 24, 2012
