Peter grew-up in Ipswich and raised his family in Rowley. He enjoyed the
ocean, digging clams and floating along the Ipswich River on his Pontoon
boat “Gimmie Sum!” His favorite days were being on the boat entertaining
family and friends cooking sausage, hot dogs and anything else he could
fit on the grill. He could often be seen on golf courses all over the
North Shore, his favorites were Ould Newbury and Ipswich Country Club.
Peter found his true home at Eaton Corporation /Axcelis Technologies in

family friendly atmosphere. He continued with Axcelis until ALS cut short
his time there. He was lovingly cared for at home by his wife and
daughters until he finished his life at the Kaplan House. He was
peacefully surrounded on his final day with his daughters and wife by his
side.
