Born in Holzen, Germany and raised in Long Island, New York, Peter was a resident of Rosenhayn for many years before moving to Franklinville in 1972. He worked in the maintenance department for Ancora Hospital in Winslow Township for 12 years until his retirement in 2002. Peter was very active with the Saint James Lutheran Church in Pitman, including serving on the Church Council. He loved listening to Russian music and watching the Sci-Fi Channel and enjoyed tinkering with cars, fixing things around the house, and rebuilding broken items that he would pick up. His family remembers him as a Jack of all trades, master of none.
