Jacob, my "cool" brother was a popular student at Woodroffe highschool in the 70s. Despite a cancer diagnosis, he lived life to the fullest, balancing an active social life, playing trumpet in the band, and excelling at his schoolwork to graduate an Ontario Scholar and continue at Queens in Engineering. Jacob left us 18 forever frozen in time as a teenager ready to take on whatever life presented him. |

Those of us that knew Peter, know how much he loved life, his family and friends. Blackcomb Mountains "Xhiggy's Meadow" is an appropriate memorial to Pete as anyone who has enjoyed a few turns there and knew him would attest to. I think of him often. |
