I am so sorry to hear about Peter. I worked with Peter during his elementary years at Mt Horeb school district. He was such a gentle soul. Prayers and strength to each of you.

I'm so sorry about Peter. I found a scripture on JW.org that I like to share, Acts 24:15, "there is going to be a resurrection" I wish your family the very best for the future.

I remember Petie as an infant and then a toddler when I would come visit Beth. I’m so sorry to hear about this. You loved him so well.
