Pete's cookies

I owe Pete a plate of cookies.

Pete's the greatest guy, really. He has the softest, kindest voice that just makes you feel calm within moments of being in his presence. His warm smile lights up the room and when he asks you how you are doing, he really wants to know. When you ask him how he's doing, he touches on the highlights: business is good, his family cat is MIA, he's really excited because his son is visiting from college. You get the sense that he loves his life, his family, and his work. He does and it shows.

See, Pete's Auto Body has been a Pacific Grove staple for years. Everyone knows that if you want a good, honest deal and beautiful craftsmanship for your newly banged up ride, you go to Pete. And we also know that he will help you out if you need it. He's done it twice with me and this last time, he really went all out, personally absorbing several hundred dollars so that my back window would roll up and down again. The car is beautiful and when I picked her up, I was absolutely thrilled with the job that he did and I promised him cookies.

Pete passed away early in February, 2013; just a few weeks ago. And still…

I owe Pete a plate of cookies.

Remember to honor your promises when you make them. Do it Now. You never know when you might loose your chance.

Thank you for visiting my blog and have a fabulous day!
