Barbara and family , I was shocked to see that "Pete" has left us it's been awhile since I've seen him; I send my sincere condolence to the family.
There simply are no words that can begin to describe the empty void I'll have to live with and endure by the loss of my long time beloved bestie, "Uncle Pete". How do I begin to wrap my mind and heart around not having you here to share my EVERY THING with?
I'm certain you heard Him say, "Well done good and faithful servent." So now my friend, as difficult as this is, I bid you farewell, but not goodbye because you will always be with me.
Put on your robe and crown, take your seat at the table and save a place for me.
All my love... until we meet again.🙏
Our condolences to the family.
My Deepest condolences at this difficult time, I'm thinking of the entire Thornton family. I'll always remember Patrick(Pete) kindness. I hope you can find strength in the Love surrounding you. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need help with anything. Cassandra Hartman-Emerson

Patrick was one of the most considerate and logical gentleman I ve ever known. The talks we had were exceptional always giving words that made you think about both sides of a situation.
