Words alone cannot express our sympathy on the death of your father. The measured of a life-well-lived is not in how much money one has or what possessions they have accumulated, but rather through the lives that Pete touched. Pete was well-loved by our family. Cooper Family

Pop's, you will be deeply missed. It was always apparent how proud you were of your daughter Kandace, you always showed up to her pool games and softball games to cheer her on. You were a happy go lucky guy and just went with the flow. One of my favorite memories is when you got your first tattoo for your 65th Birthday! I thought that was pretty awesome! Rest in Peace Pop's. You were a good man!
