Aunt Joan, Jimmy, Julie and Joel,

Although no words can really help to ease the loss you bear, just know that you are very close in every thought and prayer.

Uncle Pete was there for my father during his time of need and I have always appreciated that.

Take care and comfort in each other and the loving memories of our loved ones.

Love,
Ricky & Kaylean

Dear Joan, Julie, Jimmy and Joel

Margaret, Woody III, Ronnie, Susan and I, would like to express our deepest felt sympathies for your loss of Pete. We remember some really good times and I enjoyed working with him for 25 yrs. at Firestone. The best times was our living near each other and the the mutual friends we had. (ie. Baldwins) Woody III reminded me of the time Pete, still in his pajamas, drove almost to Buna at 11pm one night when our car went out on that lonely road and picked us all up and took us to our home. I also remember he was the only one of my friends to come over and help me when I started to build our garage on Bridalwreath. Even though neither of us knew a lot about carpentry, he gave me the encouragment I needed to tackle and complete the job. Our prayers are with you. All our Love The Woody Dorman Family. PS Julie let me take a pic of her last night at the visitation, to show to all the family. I am sorry I was not able to a speak with you Joan. you were so covered up with friends and family last night. I am trying to send pic to you. Wish me luck. WD
