The death occurred at Moncton Hospital on Saturday, January

Loving father of daughters Susan (Greg) Clark, Leduc County,
AB and Angie Elsinga, Calgary, AB; chosen son Colin MacKenzie,

trusting canine companion Charlie. Peter is also survived by

and Anneke (Henk) Bos-Joostema, as well as his nieces and
nephews. Predeceased by his parents Peter and Wally

uncles.
Peter was a volunteer and founding member with the New London
Fire Department for over 50 years and was an avid curler out of the
Crapaud Curling Club for many years. He farmed for decades
and continued in this vein with a passion for his
garden. Peter thoroughly enjoyed harness racing and was
always eager to share homemade chowder or garden vegetables with
friends and family. His contagious laugh will be missed by all who
knew him.
