Peter Gunning Obituary, Death – My father, Peter Gunning, passed away recently, and it is with a great deal of sorrow that I share this news with you. After a year of battling aggressive pancreatic cancer, he passed away peacefully at home on Tuesday night while surrounded by his family. He had been battling from the disease. Following the diagnosis, he continued to exhibit the pragmatism for which he was known.
He made the most of the precious time he had with his friends, family, and his passion for automobiles, all the while ensuring that others were cared for in the same manner that we had cared for him. In addition to being a pillar of our family, he will be remembered as a man who was honest, had integrity, and upheld ideals that were unwavering. As far as I am concerned, my father was the individual whose viewpoint I appreciated the most, and he is the individual against whom I evaluate all others. Peter will be greatly missed as a friend, a parent, and a spouse.
