It's difficult to read through all these wonderful messages without it bringing a tear to your eye but at the end of the day it is also a reminder for us of so many good and fun memories of Pete and his days in the Vic.

Who can forget those wonderful firework displays where Pete simply put any apparent 'duds' on the bonfire and waited for the sparks to fly, health and safety was NOT an issue! Or the time the cat ate the meat from the buffet and Pete calmly shooed the cat, cut off the obviously gnawed bits and it was business as usual. It was all part of his charm! And the dinosaur disco's we could go on and on, we had so many laughs (and some tears).

Words are so inadequate at a time like this but our thoughts are with you Val, Charlotte, Tamsin & families. It must be so nice to know how loved Pete was and how much he will be missed by so many.
