Al and Family... We were heartbroken to read that Peter had passed. The memories of the times we spent together in Brusly will always be treasured. Chris and Austin will never forget the October's we drove to her home so she could empty the remainder of the candy treats into their bags when they were young. She will always be an adored memory. We love you... Terry, Chris (Alice) and Austin Harrington

Aw Peter I'll never forget the times at 1151 Louisiana Avenue!!!!! The old stomping ground of Hall's funeral home in the kitchen with Elsie, Momma Joyce Pattan peeling shrimp and anything else they can find for us to do. Those were the good old days. Rest in peace! Kiss Elsie and Hall for me. Your great-godchild niece!

We extend our heartfelt condolences to the Family of Mrs. Mary H. Gray. May you find comfort in the knowledge that "Peter" lived a life of purpose and is now with the Lord and may that same Jesus grant each of you the strength to continue her legacy of Faith and good works. It is our prayer that you find comfort in knowing that your lives have been enriched by having shared your life's journey through and with her. Our prayers and thoughts are with you.

To Al and Family: Please accept my heartfelt condolences for the loss of your mother. I will never forget how helpful she and Uncle Huey were to me at one of the most difficult times in my life. Her burdens in life were great, but she would do anything for anyone if she could. She was a great friend to both my mother and father, and with God's help, they will watch over us together. On a lighter note, I will miss our conversations that lasted until the wee hours of the morning. She has fought the good fight; she has finished her course. May the Good Lord bless and keep you.

Much love, Celeste and Family
