I'm glad I made that walk down the dirt road when I was little to meet Mr. Pete and his horses. Along with that came meeting his wonderful family who I've come to love as my own. My thoughts are with you during this time. Mr. Pete will be greatly missed by many. I love you all. I know he is glad to see his Rhetta again.

Pete was a wonderful person to know, who never had a cross word to say. I remember well when he first came to Moncks Corner and how I looked up to him.
