Met Pete on a Terrace School Camp. The 'women' weren't allowed down in to the kitchen until 7.15am. We would sit down and Pete would serve us up a cooked breakfast, and then after that the kitchen was ours. I felt so appreciated. He had empathy for everyone but also wouldn't let 'naughty' students disrupt it for the others and would organise something else for them. Awesome man and I am so appreciative that ten years ago I was blessed to have met this man.

All we can say is Pete was a mentor; a model of a decent & honourable human being. Goodbye Pete, thanks for the life lessons.
