Pete was truly a special person, and I’m grateful I had the chance to know him while we worked together at Cable One. Even when I didn’t report directly to Pete, he was always a leader to me—always ready to offer advice “for what it’s worth.” And if you knew Pete, you know it was always worth gold.
The last time I saw him was April 15th. I told him how much I appreciated his mentorship and how he believed in me more than I believed in myself. He helped me understand that I was more than the situations I faced. In classic Pete fashion, he had no idea how big of an impact he had on me.
I will truly treasure the memories, the friendship, and the leadership of this great man. I only wish I had gotten to know Pete’s family, because he loved each and every one of you so much. I feel like I know you all because he always spoke so fondly of you.
God bless.

Phil and Pete were friends since high school. So many good memories together. Met games, comedy shows, bar b ques, birthdays, weddings, and watching our kids grow up. We were so saddened to hear of his passing. He just reached out to us so we could meet up since he was back on the east coast again. We were lucky we visited Peter and Dori a few years back in Arizona and we met up with Peter and Megan also when he was in town. Truly the kindest soul. You could tell how proud he was of his kids. When he sang with Megan and Kelsey it was so sweet and I looked forward to his weekly sessions on facebook. Facebook kept us in touch even though we lived miles apart. My thoughts and prayers are with Dorianne,Sean, Megan and Kelsy during this difficult time.

Peter was a mentor, and friend to me, and many others. He was always willing to take time to lend a hand, his thoughts, or to just chat. I’m sad that our planned lunch, and music playing won’t happen. Condolences to Peter’s family. His positive imprint on those he knew and loved is strong.

Peter will be missed! He left his mark on so many lives because of his compassion, integrity, love of family, love of music and, of course, his ever so subtle NY accent. (Coming from a fellow NY'r). I am so sorry for your loss. He was taken too soon.

My condolences to your family!🙏❤️🙏🕊May he Rest In Peace!🕊Peter was my boss at Mediacom. The best boss I ever had. Very kind and always played his guitar on his off time. I loved hearing him play in the office. He will be truly missed! My daughters and I used to dog sit (Brody & Scout) for the family when they used to live in NY! Great memories!

Peter was an absolute inspiration. Peter and Dorianne fostered my sisters and I to try to keep us together years ago. I’m always thankful to have been put in their lives. They were the only people in my life that made me feel like home. Like family. I think about them very often because of who they helped shape me into. Peter was everything I needed in a father and I’m so happy to have been able to get that from him. No matter what time or day I could always just show up. I miss and love you all very much and I’m so unbelievably sorry. He was such a kind amazing person.

Peter was my first manager at Cable One. He was a guiding light, compassionate, thoughtful, and a true mentor. Most of all, he was a genuinely good human being, and the world will be a lesser place without him.

Farewell my friend I will miss the chats we had. I was thinking of you when the Tedeschi Trucks Band passed through Red Rocks earlier this week.
