Peter was the kind of person who lit up every room he walked into.
He had the best stories and an incredible gift for reminding us all to enjoy life and make the most of every moment.
I hold dear the memory of a summer in 2023, when he hosted a barbecue for the whole family. Smiling as always, radiating warmth, generosity, and joy.
Thank you, Peter, for the beautiful moments and the heartfelt advice you shared with me.
You will always have a place in my heart, and your legacy of La Buena Vida will stay with me forever.
Andrés from Costa Rica.
Marsha and Family,

Love, Dawn and all the Baillies
