    Mike,

    Karen and I are sorry to here about the passing of your father. I vividly remember the good times talking with your dad at Parkway South Basketball games, and at your house. He was a lot of fun being around, and brought many smiles to my face. Please pass along my condolences to your brother’s, and especially your mom. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. God bless.

    I am shocked and very saddened to hear of my cousin’s passing. I know we did not keep in touch, just weddings, funerals, and Christmas cards. He was a great man and I am sure a great husband to you Marge. I remember your wedding, such a great looking couple! The cousins were always proud of him being a police officer. Ed and I are proud that one of our sons followed in the tradition of the police. Please accept our deepest sympathy at this time for you and all your family . If there is anything we can do for you ,please do not hesitate to call. All our love, Ed and Jane Koeller 314-416-0223

    Pete Reiter was such an amazing man who will be missed more than any words can ever say. He was a wonderful husband, and so in love with his wife Marge. They had the kind of marriage that inspires people. He also was a great Dad to his 3 boys, Mike, Brad and Kevin. His sons truly looked up to their Dad and loved him very much. I came a long 20 years ago, to witness Pete as “PaPa”. His grandkids were all crazy about him. He had a way of making each of the 6 kids feel special in their own way. Pete made it to almost all of his 11 year old grandson’s baseball games, even his last game of the season in October. He later told his grandson that he would be watching his upcoming games from Heaven. I truly believe he will be. Again, Pete Reiter was truly a good man. He was a wonderful husband, a great dad and the best “PaPa” a kid could have. We all love you and will miss you forever. Thanks for all the laughs. Almost forgot, your daughter-in-laws all sure loved you too!

    Dear Marge and family,

    Please accept our deepest sympathy for the passing of your dear husband, and one of our favorite cousins. He will be missed.
    My sister Pat and I were recalling the times that we watched Pete play baseball at Marquette Park. He was always glad to see us. We loved being there.

    We are thankful that you and Pete came to our brother Steve’s funeral. We have always enjoyed your company, and appreciated your concern for our loss. Mom was so happy to see you at this difficult time.

    Best wishes and warm regards for the family. We are so very sorry for your loss.
    Dave and Lynn Reiter
