Pete was one of the greatest men I have ever known. He was so kind and helpful to me when I first started working with him all those years ago. And we remained good friends thru the years. I will miss you Pete.

Although a short time we have known each other, you have left a lasting impression on me. Many times you expressed your love for God, your family and your Cajun Heritage! I know you are dancing the streets of gold with your loving wife. Until we meet again, God Speed Mr. Waguespack.
