Pete turns the big 3-0 today!
In honor of my husband’s special day, I enlisted the help of some folks to tell Pete how great he is. (Which happens to tie in nicely with my Proverbs 31 hands on learning series.)
Proverbs 31:23
23 Her husband is respected at the city gate,
where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
Okay here it goes…
First, I admire how generous Pete is with his time – everyone comes to Pete with computer questions eventually, and he always has time to help. Second, after attending Bible Study with Pete I have come to respect his unique and well thought-out insights as well as his desire to learn and grow. Pete is a faithful friend.
-Jay (Bible Study Leader)
I have friends who are smarter than me, and brotha, you’re one of them. You are a valuable friend for your insights. Thanks Pete!
-Jeremy (Friend)
Pete is a pretty special guy in my book. Not only has he been one of the best employees I’ve ever had the honor to have work for me, but I also consider him a good friend.
He’s one of the smartest guys I know, and I think he could pretty much figure out almost any problem he puts his mind to. He has a way of seeing things before others do that is particularly impressive. I know he doesn’t give himself credit for how bright he actually is, but he really is an extraordinary person.
I feel blessed to know him, work with him, and call him my friend.

It’s hard to believe that when we first met Peter was just 18 years old. We were so blessed when just a few years later he met with us privately to tell us he was going to ask Jessica to marry him. We could never have asked for a better son-in-law.
He is industrious, energetic and loving. He is a godly husband and father who has made such a difference in our daughter’s and in our lives. We wish him a very happy 30th birthday and we hope many more. May God continue to bless him always.
-Dennis and Lucy (The Inlaws)
The thing that has stood out most, in my relatively short time in knowing Pete, is his ability to be slow to react, quick to stay cool, and his ability to view situations or people in a positive light. There have been many times that I have been quick to judge something and Pete presented his view and completely changed my outlook on it. He certainly seems wise in that way.
-Josh (Co-Worker)
I agree with all the statements above and then some! I am so proud to have a guy like Pete. {happy birthday, you elder, you!}
Love,
Jess
