  5. To Dear Anne, Mathew, Jenna & family,
    I was sorry to hear that Peter recently lost his brave battle ... may he now rest in peace, free of pain ...
    Peter was always kind & funny, greeting us with a welcoming smile & ready laugh. Always asking what we'd been up to & genuinely interested in our answers!
    He loved his family, so proud of his beautiful children & grandchildren.
    A loyal friend ... I know that Roma (& Jim) considered him (& Anne) the best neighbors in the world ... "part of the family" at any Monaghan get-together in Armstrong Street.
    We are unable to attend Peter's memorial service due to work/school commitments, however I am so glad that I got to sit down with him at home earlier this month and reminisce about times gone by ...
    I was able to let him know that he was appreciated by all that were lucky enough to call him family, friend, work colleague or a neighbor :)
    He made a positive difference in the lives of so many, always providing help when needed & spreading unconditional kindness.
    Hoping the Pies can win the Premiership for you in 2023 Pete!
    Thinking of you all at this difficult time,
    Love Bridget, Jamie, Sophie & Darcy xx xx

    It will not be the same.
    You will all have memories to cherish.
    Peter has toughed it for a long time. He has done what he wanted, a smoke in one hand, a tinny in another. Enjoying a book, visiting special people, and watching the pies.
    Everyone will miss your easy, cheeky, smile.
    Family is so precious 💖
    R.I.P. Peter. 🖤🤍🖤
