Peter was a 1980 Mt. Pleasant High School graduate and attended the University of Delaware before graduating from Goldey-Beacom College. Peter had a long customer service career and worked at Highmark Delaware at the time of his death.
A devout Catholic, Peter found strength and comfort as a faithful member of the Holy Family Catholic Church.
