My prayers and sympathy to the family. I used to see Peter serving my lunch in the cafeteria at work and also in the hallways, and he was always friendly and gracious. Seemed like a very nice guy. I believe the depth of the pain will be
the measure of the joy of the reunion one day. God bless all who loved Peter.

To Sandy and Vicki, two of my oldest and dearest friends-
I have been at a loss for words since I read of Peter’s untimely death. We are all shocked and saddened to have him taken from this earth at such a young age. I know he was a wonderful son and brother to you both. Even though my life has taken me across the miles from you, you have always remained in my heart. I wish I could be there for you as you lay him to rest. I would like nothing better to be holding your hands and sharing your pain. But, we should focus on the amazing memories that we have from the “old days”: of camping, of horse shows, of cook-outs off your back porch for New Year’s Eve. These will always bring a smile to my face…
All My Love-

A sympathy card was purchased for the family of Peter Jon Morency.
My sympathies and condolences to the Morency family. Pete and I went to Danvers High together. He was truly one of the good guys, and the laughs were never in short supply when you were anywhere near Pete. Two things really stand out in my memory, having a blast at his high school graduation party and cruising around in that beautiful Monte Carlo. Rest in peace pal…we are all gonna miss down here.
Sincerely,
Paul Leavitt
