Current Memories

I met Pete thru a mutual friend of ours. I wanted to write a comic book and needed an artist. We never did the comic book but while discussing it we became good friends. He designed the logo of my comic book Facebook group without even charging me. Every time he saw Posted I was upset on Facebook within seconds my messenger was blowing up with messages from Pete asking if I was ok and what was wrong. He was great at giving advice and making you forget all that was wrong in the world. He was so easy to talk to. We met a few times in real life and he was a pleasure to hang out with. I will miss him greatly.Rest in peace, friend. Till we meet again.

I met Pete in college while working at the school's radio station. Sharing a love of music (the louder and more metal, the better), of art, and of finding the most creative ways to spend a college student's meager earnings were what we excelled in. I will miss his talent and his sense of humor. I will miss his Netflix recommendations and his horrible "Dad" jokes. Most of all, I will miss being able to celebrate another year of friendship. But what I have are great memories of Pete and knowing him.

Pete, you will forever be remembered by me as Nikki's vivacious, fun, loving brother who didn't mind being my dance partner at any party or event. I uploaded two photos of you and that is how i will always remember you, with a smile on your face and being happy. Although I moved as far south as possible, you and your family were and are always in my heart and I love you all very much! May you rest in peace, until we meet again.

Pete reached out to me on Facebook about 6 years ago, seeing that we both went to the same high school. Ever since then, we've been in constant communication through chats and phone calls. Pete is an incredibly passionate, talented guy with great stories to tell, having lived a very interesting life. Just the fact that he was able to support himself doing his own books is a hell of an achievement. He believed in what he did and always gave his best. He will be missed.



From: Mario Lopez Wednesday, February 7, 2018
Once I decided to take a course about the music aspect of music taught by a Bert Padel and Sid Bernstein who is responsible for bringing the Beatles to the US in 1964. Pete asked to come one day cause I would tell him how awesome it was. Every class had a guest speaker from puff daddy to al b sure to the president of the Beatles fan club. The day Pete came along, that gentleman was there with all types of Beatles memobilia and he and Sid Bernstein spoke about how Sid made it possible to bring them over to the US. By the end of the class, Sid spoke with Pete who’s personality would light up any room he blessed with his presence. Sid liked him so much he secretly autographed an original flyer of when the Beatles first played in America in Shea stadium and gave it to Pete quietly. Pete was amazed and so grateful. He ended up framing that flyer and hung it in his room. That is just one of so many amazing moments my friend and I shared. I lost contact with Pete as we grew older but always had him in my thoughts. He always supported me with anything I did with music as I did with his art. He was an amazing artist. I miss you Pete. You will always be in my heart. Thank you for all the wonderful memories hanging out in east New York, the rock clubs and bars you introduced me to and for just being part of the best years of my life. Love you and your familyand I will always miss you my brother. God bless you
