Pete was a good friend and mentor to me. We knew each other about 14 years down in Victorville, CA. He passed away on March 8, 2004. Friends are welcome to leave comments here on this post.
Pete did a lot of recording with me and was a featured artist on the New Faces compilation releases by Road Records of Southern California.
Many know Pete as a commercial real estate agent in the Southern California High Desert. He sold real estate in the areas of Victorville, Hesperia, Apple Valley, Oro Grande, Phelan, et al.
Musicians know him as intense and naturally gifted. And I think all of us knew him as fun and challenging.
UPDATES JUNE 2010: I am taking down Pete’s memorial website because there’s no where over there for people to interact or post messages. So friends of PD can post comments here.
BUT! To make up for taking down his memorial website I uploaded his song Shelter so you can listen to and download his music. That page is located at:

(Please note that URL address up above is DOT NET, it’s a different website than this one you’re on now. )I hope you all can listen to it and leave some comments. I really think PD did a great job on this recording.
