If you are lucky enough to know Pete, then you already understand what a special person he is.

His warmth, generosity and infectious smile are just a few of the things that make Pete so special.

But words cannot even begin to describe the person Pete is. We felt the only way to capture the true spirit of Pete is through pictures.

So we put together a brief slideshow of some of our favorite moments that we have shared together.

We hope you enjoy it and thank you so much for taking the time to see what Pete means to us.
