To Laurel and family,
I was sorry to hear of Peters passing and wish to pass on our condolences to you all. I have known Peter pretty much all my life and remember him always being here. My godfather was Robin Wratt and when he and Rona got married Peter was upset that I'd been invited and he hadn't! When I explained why he was a little happier.
My wife's memory was hearing him say I've got just the thing for you!
