Peter was a mentor and a friend to me. Peter and. brother Phil trusted me too do any job given to me. I always felt like they were my family. When I got sick Peter and Geri were there for me, I will never forget the care and kindness they gave me. I will always love them all.

What can I say about Peter and a life well lived? I've known Peter since I was in diapers, and I have nothing but positive memories of him and his brothers. From the beginning, they treated me as an equal, even though I was their junior. In the snow removal industry, they taught me that if I wanted to compete, I had to step up my game to their level of excellence. Despite being competitors on a local level, our interactions were always cordial, and Peter became one of my mentors. His door was always open for discussions, whether about business or personal matters.
One of my favorite memories if many was when he invited me to join the crew on a trip to watch the Indianapolis 500. It was an honor to be included, and the adventure was truly amazing.
Peter, thank you for helping to shape me into the man I am today. I will miss you dearly. God bless you, until we meet again.

My deepest sympathies to the entire Dejana Family at this sad time. I was so fortunate to have worked for Peter for 28 yrs. He was such an amazing, caring & generous man. His generosity went above & beyond. Peter was never too busy to stop & talk to you if you had a problem. He listened & was always willing to give you good advice. He had such a big heart. Peter will be sadly missed by all who knew him. May you rest in peace Peter. P.S. please say hello to Phil for me. Kathy Hartblay

In this time of sorrow, we mourn the loss of Peter. A soul driven by passion and kindness, his generosity knew no bounds and he will be eternally remembered for the selfless gifts he bestowed. Peter encapsulated the essence of a true gentleman interspersed with delightful dancing prowess. His absence leaves a void that cannot be filled but his spirit will forever live amongst us.

Me and Gaston will miss our rides in the motorcycle sidecar around Town. Nothing will beat the day at S Bayles and Main Street when the Port Cop stopped in the middle of intersection and couldn’tbelieve what he was seeing. Bye buddy -JJ
