He took pride in getting something as good as he could but never took his talent for granted, always gave 100%, and would say to me 'How did it sound?'... I never saw Peter angry, or frustrated, no matter how average the gig was or the venue... always friendly, happy, easy going, and this is the story I hear from everyone who knew him." Paul Cross
