Goodbye, old chum
Shocked and saddened to hear this news, though Pete will doubtless be pleased to have gone out on a high. Lynda will be devastated, but will have strong family support.
I was privileged to serve as his deputy for most of his tour as OC MPA, and we have been close friends ever since. He was a good Boss, an irrepressible character and will be sorely missed.
RIP.
