Peter Michael Simonetti loving son, grandson, brother, uncle, cousin and beloved friend to all died on May 8, 2022 after a short battle with cancer.
He was born on April 25, 1949 to the late Michael and Florence Simonetti of the Bronx, New York. He was a devout Catholic.

He was passionate about caring for his animals and any stray that came his way. Peter selflessly loved his family and friends.

Almost 40 years of friendship, 20 years of being neighbors. ‘Sitting out’ in the summer, eating take out once a week in my apt, our late nights when I first got internet, how good you were to my kids, the weekly card games, our crazy antics that we would still
laugh about, I could go on forever with my memories. You were a part of some
Of the best times of my life and I’m so glad to have had the opportunity to tell you that. I sure will miss you Peter RIP.
Such a loss, he was beloved by anyone who ever crossed his path. His love of music, and his humor will stay with me always. I pray that your sis, dad, Arlene and Chris were there to greet you at the gates of heaven. Rest in peace my friend.
My friend of many years. Truly will be missed…
Peter I never had the pleasure of meeting you, but l feel as though l know you from your friendship with my mom, Ann Ring. She always talked about you and Bob and she considered you her dear friend. Rest in peace!
