Wow! What a shock that Peter is gone. We will miss seeing him in Ouray, Colorado on his treks with Ann to the San Juan mountains.
Ann, I hope you continue to come to Colorado...hope to see you.
We will all be with God someday and will again enjoy hiking around Heaven with Peter.
Ann, you are in our prayers,

Mr. Stovall to me was a great man. I remember as though it were yesterday. When he and his wife made Dallas and I our prom dinner. What a wounderful time! I know I will miss his easing smile and firm hand shake. But along with other family and friends who have passed on. I will once again be honored to shake his hand. But until then I will continue to think of Mr. Stovall, Mrs. Stovall, Dallas, and the whole family.
Love and Prayers always!

Dear Merle - This is so tragic to know what happened
to Peter. I know you and family are just devasted and
so bereaved over this. Shirley Poynter was keeping all
us classmates informed. Our thoughts and prayers go
out to you and family. Also, I read sometime ago about
your little grandson dying - did not know until then that
you had a son living in Ft. Smith. We have been in
Greenwood 5 yrs. - have two sons that live and work
here in Ft. Smith. Our deepest condolences.
Love, Burnie and Daisy Morris

I was very sorry to hear of Peter's accident and subsequent death. He and I were good friends from years ago in junior and senior high school.
We played football together, camped and hunted together, and participated in the various activities of Mountain Home High School, and just "growing up" in Mountain Home. Peter was a fine person.
My condolences to all his family.
