This is to the most wonderful brother that anyone could have wished for "Peter". Peter was a wonderful brother. Any one who was blessed with one moment of his awesome life knows that they once stood in the precence of real Love.
God knew when he sent you to the world you could handle the tasks you were given. When you were finished doing your tasks he took you home.I still miss you so much Peter it has been 7 months now since you passed away.This past 7 months has gone so fast.
Anyway i just thought i would leave a message to say i miss you so much but you will always be in my heart.

6 months today (20-05-08) / Jeanette Bell (sister)
Peter today is 6 months since you passed away nothing is the same without you here.People keep reminding me that things will get easier in time i just don't know when.Peter i blame myself for your death and i can't get it out of my head that it isn't my fault which makes it much harder for me.I know you wouldn't want me to think like that but i can't help it.I miss you more and more each day.You was an awesome brother and your family and friends loved you so much.We all miss you and you will be in our hearts forever Close
Wow what can I say I really don't know, You are really loved and missed so much, Today we celebrate 6 months with out you near us but you are in my hearts forever
You was the biggest inspiration in my life and I will always treasure what you have showed me through life, no one can ever replace the love, support, the friendship that you gave to me
Losing a brother so young was very hard for me to deal with, I still haven't got over the shock I had dealt wth walking into that Nursing Home to been told you was taken away, my heart melted and I didn't even know what to say to the NUM, I asked her was you alright but you was already taken home to our wonderful parents you was laying there so peaceful Pete and I was so happy that I got the chance to sit there with you
Pete I felt your face, Kissed your forehead and I said Thank you for letting the Angels take you home to RIP, You are one in a million and the best brother,best friend,that I could ever have
I think of you every minute of the day, I will never ever forget you bro, the heartache I have dealt with losing you will never be filled In my heart forever
Peter it is 5 months today (20-April-2008) since you passed away.We all still miss you so much it doesn't feel the same without you here.You will forever be loved and treasured and we will hold you close to our hearts forever.
I knew Peter for many years and i have just heard he passed away.I'm so sorry to hear the news and hope you are all doing ok.A friend of mine just found out and decided to call me.I'm shocked and im so sorry this happened.My friend gave me the link to the site and Jeanette you have done a great job and your brother would be proud of you.Thankyou for giving us somewhere to come to remember our buddy.I have seen the site his friend made up for him and it is a credit to the guy.
Peter The world stopped spinning, The heavens grew dark, The end was beginning, Our hearts broke apart. For you had always been there More true than any other, You are so far beyond compare Heaven's gift to us, our Brother You gave us life, you gave us love And now you've gone to God above. Our pain of heart too much to bare, In pain until we're with you there. For all your works, may heaven uncover It's treasures for you, Our precious Brother
Peter it is just over 4 months now that you went away it feels like yesterday.We all love and miss you.You was brave going through what you went through.
Hi Peter / Jeanette Bell (sister)
Hi Peter i just wanted to leave a message to say that im thinking of you always.I will never ever forget you.They say each day gets easier but to me everyday is much the same without you being here.You was way too young to die but at least you don't have to suffer anymore.You was loved by all who knew you and we will more than likely never get over you.Life just doesn't seem the same without you and it's so unfair that you are gone.I miss you but you will be in my heart forever and i will always remember you.Everytime i think about you i miss you so much more i just wish that you could have been spared just an extra day so i could have got to see you one more time.I was too late to see you one last time but i was always thinking about you.All i wanted to do was have one last conversation with you one last hug and to just be with you until the end and just be there to comfort you .I also wanted to tell you how proud i was to have you as a brother.I can understand that it would have been scary for you,especially when you started forgetting people and going blind also not knowing what was happening from one day to the next.As i have said before i was the first one you forgot which was very hard for me but i understood.I know you was very very brave going through what you did.Peter i know that you would have been happy when you got to heaven where i know you would be safe in the arms of mum and dad and all those gone before you.Anyway i think i better go now but i just needed to leave a message for you.I miss you so so much i wish you was still here with me.From your sister Jeanette Close

My eulogy about Peter / Paul Johnson (Friend)
Peter had lived an amazing life even though it was rather short. He was a great friend; he was the kind of friend that stands by you when you need somebody to be there. I personally knew Peter for close on 9 years and met him at the speedway.I was rather shocked to hear Peter was sick.When i first met Peter i didn't know how i would react. Peter turned out to be a really nice person and he ended up being a good friend of mine.What is it that i remember when i think of Peter? I think everyone who knew him very well would agree with me on this. It was his sense of humor. He was the kind of person that would make everyone laugh so hard that they’d end up crying. What I will truly miss about Peter is his kind heart,smile and positive attitude. He always cheered me up when he knew I just had a bad day. That’s the thing about Peter. He always wanted to make people happy,help people out,sponsor drivers/riders and was friendly to anyone he met.The almost 9 years i was priviliged to meet this man Peter and have him as a great friend.He used to call me every night just to say hi and see how i was. I remember when I heard the news about Peter passing away I simply could not believe it. Peter was too young but as it slowly occurred to me I have realized that Peter indeed lived his life wonderfully. Peter was well-loved and he had done so many things on earth and I’m sure he’ll do much more in heaven. I will forever be grateful to have known Peter. . I will forever be grateful for spending 9 precious years of my life with a friend like him. All the memories I have shared with him will forever be cherished and remembered. Peter will forever live in my heart… In our hearts.
Peter is in heaven now and as we were at his funeral,It wasn't a time to grieve his death but it’s our time to celebrate his life. Don’t ever forget Peter. He never wanted to see people cry or unhappy and always had a smile on his face. He wanted to make everyone happy. So at that moment when his body was about to be layed to rest , we should have thought back and remembered how Peter touched our lives. How he made us laugh and how good Peter was as a person. This is not the moment for us to shed our tears but we should all be thankful that we were given the chance to have known a man named Peter.
Peter will forever be missed but I know in the right time, I will meet him again. We will all meet Peter again and he’ll make us laugh and smile again.
My mate Pete / Robert King (Mate)
Perfect friend to me and everytime he seen me he would walk up to me and say hello matey i never realised that there was so much wrong with him everytime i spoke to him on the phone or at the track he would say he was fine rather than talk about his sicknesses over the years
Definately put people before himself often i would hear him say i sponsored that kid when we would be sitting at the track and one of the drivers walked past from the Karts best person you could ever wish to have as a mate so thoughtful and helpful to many others and not once complained never forgotten and always in my heart. I miss you Close
I just wanted to say hello to you.I think heaven is a nice place for all the people that can't get better.My nanny went to heaven and you might see her and you can talk to her if you want to.When you talk to nanny tell her that i miss her and love her.from Blake

To the siblings of Peter's / Margaret Leijen (Aunty)
To the siblings of Peter's, I know how hard it is for all of you to be mourning his loss. I know he would have been welcomed by your Mum and Dad, your Grandparents from both sides of the family, your other relatives and Pete's many friends of whom he spoke from time to time. You are not in this boat on your own and have only to pick up the phone and talk to any family member or friend you like, just like Kevin has done in the past. Others are hurting including me. I didn't go to see Pete as often as I would have liked, but I did go. Each time was harder than the time before bringing back many memories and seeing the resemblance of your Dad, my brother. I know too well the hurt when you lose a brother. They both went too young but the decision of when that is to be is out of our hands and in the hands of One who knows better than us, GOD. Think of all the good and funny times you had with Pete. He and I had an argument when he was young and you all visited us in South Australia because he didn't like the food I cooked, he only ate certain things which did not include vegetables (I think).As a young boy he thought then he was a removalist and used to move my set of coffee tables around the floor by putting them upside down and skating around the floor on them. There are lots of things that will make you smile, even laugh about him. We all will miss him because he had a way of getting into people's hearts and staying there with a life long memory. I love you Jeanette, Sharon, Kevin and Stephen and that will never change as Pete's memory will never fade. The tears might become less in time for us all., Aunty Margaret XXXXXX Close

You will be missed Peter / Jackie Mcpherson (Friend)
To the Dobson family We have just found out from reading on a speedway site that Peter passed away .We didn't want to believe it at first. Why does life have to be so cruel to take such a young man. Peter had a huge heart and has done alot for our family over the years. We had no idea until we read the messages that Peter was even sick. So what a shock to read that he is no longer with us. Peter our hearts are aching,our tears are falling continously. We would like to send some money to the family just as a token of our love for Peter. So would someone from Peters family please email me address details. R.I.P mate until we see you in heaven one day

What 2 say 2 you Pete / Sharon Dobson (Younger Sister )
Well what do u say 2 a guy that you love so much
No words can explain how much I love you and miss you
Peter I spoke with the hospital at 11am on the Tuesday morning the nurse was concerned about your breathing and the skin was changing color she asked about oxygen i said i would ring Kevin but we decided no as we thought it would be best just 2 let you go i called the nursing home back and told her No and I was on my way over that was just before 11:30 I put the kids in the car and i came straight over, I walked in i seen your door shut as i went 2 open it the man said he would get the sister in charge but bro my brain had froze as i didnt think of anything
The nurse in charge came and we were talking in the hallway she was telling me about your condition and Pete stupid me just turned around and said to her IS HE ALRIGHT? i will never forget those words at all, i just cried my eyes out i was so upset i asked her could i go in and see you she said that was fine they had the curtains around you i just looked at you and cried i put my head on ur face and i said THANK YOU PETER 4 THE LOVE AND LIFE YOU HAD GIVEN AND I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER ENJOY YOUR JOURNEY HOME TO DAD AND MUM, those are words that will never leave my heart or mind
