Peter (born in 1924) was just one year older than Mary and the two were great pals especially throughout their childhood in Flushing NY and then Lincoln, MA where they moved. Peter was in the same class as Mary when they commuted to Concord High School (due to a bout with an illness). The pair had use of their Aunt Louise’s car and became all the more social as they picked up friends coming and going to school or out to the movies.
Peter joined the Air Force and served in both WWII and the Korea Conflict. He dedicated his entire career to the Air Force and Aerospace achieving the rank of Lt. Colonel. Despite such technical achievements, he was a fun loving and sensitive man, especially to his nine children, including two step daughters.
Peter passed away in 2012 and was buried at Arlington National Cemetery with a full military ceremony.
