Peter was born on April 16th, 1939 and grew up in Whitefish Bay leading an idyllic fifties and sixties childhood and youth of tree houses, open fields and freedom. Peter worked hard throughout his life with a great sense of humor and kindness to all. He was a member of The Thiensville Lion’s Club, enjoyed their summer home in Minocqua, played golf, loved to read and watch sports especially The Green Bay Packers.

People gravitated to him due to his genuine love of life, thoughtfulness, listening and caring for others. Lucky Peter when he met and married Kathy to whom he was devoted. Her family embraced him and became His family. Jeff, Chris, Mark and Dan could not have been better sons to Peter. In these last years they were there for Peter at every turn.

Many thanks to Lasata Retirement Community and their devoted caregivers, especially to Lasata employee Christine Buntrock.
