Peter was a treasure for the town of Aylmer and his entire family. I had the pleasure of paying him a visit earlier this year and he and his wife were as gracious as I remembered them when I lived in Aylmer in the late 1960's. He will truly missed by his entire family and all who knew him.

My deepest heartfelt sympathy to the entire Geraci family. Peter was an inspiration to all of us who ever set foot on the pitch at EESS. He was always a mentor with a kind word for everyone that he met. He was especially kind to me and my brother Donald in 1973 after the passing of our father.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. May the happy memories bring comfort and peace to you and your family. Rick and I often recall the times we enjoyed Peter’s Pizza (the best ever) after a busy day at work. Toni was always so gracious as she served us.

My condolences to the family. I first met Peter in 1971 at age seventeen, shortly after moving to Belmont from Niagara Falls. I was a soccer player and as a result was fortunate enough to meet Peter when he was coaching the East Elgin soccer team. I was still getting my footing in a new environment and had never met a high school coach who wasn’t a teacher. We quickly established a strong player/coach bond during the two summers prior to my graduation. After I moved on from East Elgin, I was an occasional customer at the pizza shop and every time I stopped by for the next twenty or so years, Peter always remembered me, called me by name and treated me like a long lost friend. It’s been awhile since we last met but I have nothing but the fondest memories of him. He was one of those people who treated you the way everyone likes to be treated and I’m sure he’ll be sorely missed

To the Geraci family,
Sorry to hear of Pete's passing. I have fond memories working at Peter's Pizza and getting to know Pete and Mama Francis really well. Pete always had a smile on his face and could light up a room with his charm ! I even learned a little Italian while I worked there, but shouldn't print the words!
I babysat Lily a couple times, hung out with Nini and had Nini, Mathew and Geena in my wedding party.
Pete always treated me like family. I feel truly blessed for knowing him and the entire Geraci family!
Ciao Pete !!

Sincerest condolences in the passing of Pete, the Aylmer pizza icon. Going to high school in Aylmer we all would order Peter’s pizza for the late night snack. Pete was always welcoming to us kids and even allowed entry into the cool rec room in the basement under the pizza shop. Thank you Pete for your years of giving to Aylmer. Thinking of the entire family during this most difficult time. Sincerely Penny Shackelton

I will always remember my first time meeting Peter. It was at Matt and Zoe's wedding. Gina and I had been dating for some time and I was very nervous to be meeting the entire Geraci family for the first time. I was waiting for Gina following the ceremony when I saw Peter standing there by himself. I had never met him in person before so i was pretty intimidated and Peter did look like someone out of a vintage italian movie but i decided to be brave and introduce myself to him. He shook my hand, smiled and we spoke a few minutes. I truly think he appreciated my gesture and i earned his respect and later he proceeded to give Gina and Mario heck for not introducing me previously. Later that year i received a Christmas card from him and this is when i truly felt accepted and welcomed to the Geraci family.
Several years later Peter came to visit Gina and I with Fran, Mario and Nancy and he insisted on cooking a big italian dinner for my entire family(a dinner that is still talked about today). My family also comments on how much fun they had at Gina and I's wedding in Mexico and touring Playa del Carman with Peter. They said he was so jovial and full of life.
These are just a few memories I have of Peter.
Peter, thank you for always being so accepting and welcoming of me and my family. Gina, Aiden, Amelia and I love you and will miss you.
On behalf of myself and the entire Moore family we send our prayers and condolences to the Geraci family.
