Pete’s Big Send

Honoring a life lived fully, loudly, and with love

Come celebrate Pete: his stories, his music, his laugh, his head twitches, his corny jokes, all of it.

He made everyone feel like they were exactly where they were supposed to be. We’re creating the Big Send as we think he would have wanted it and we hope you can join us.
