Dear Helen,

So very sorry to hear, today, of Peter's passing.

There are some people that I cannot imagine the World without - and Peter was definitely one of those.

I always really enjoyed , & valued ,my interactions with Peter , yourself , & the family.

It's a cliche, I know , but you really are in my thoughts, at this incredibly difficult time.

All my very best wishes,

Steve

Dear Helen and family. No words can truly express my sorrow for your loss. My thoughts and Aroha are with you today. A fond memory of Pete at work was his humor that would have his team mates in fits of laughter and always had a BIG Smile.

Certainly one of the good guys. A loving husband to Helen, very proud father to Ben & Anna and top bloke to work with. Everyone that worked with Pete enjoyed his intelligence, humor, knowledge and wit. Very much missed on the ramp and our group bike rides will not be same without you. You touched everyone's hearts and you will always remain a part of our lives. Louise and I enjoyed our dinners with you and Helen and we have fond memories that will last our lifetime. Taken far to early.
All our love Peter & Louise.
