Peter Robert Rinner

(1975 - 1999)

       I miss you so much Pete.  You were such a beautiful person ~ inside and out.  You affected so many people in the years that God shared you with us.  I cherish each and every memory of our childhood.  You were too good of a person to die alone on that cold floor.  I would have given my life to help you.  I know you thought that you were 'Superman' but heroin is no match.  I guess you know that now.  You have given me a new perspective on life.  I LOVE YOU.  I MISS YOU.  I have never been more proud of you.  You made a bad decision, it will never make you a bad person.  You are my hero and you always will be.  I look toward the day we meet again.  The more I learn about heroin, I am thankful that you went to heaven when you did.  You were too good to suffer any longer.  I am so sorry that I didn't get it.  I had no idea.  I let you down and I couldn't help you in your addiction in life.  I will honor your memory and try to make something positive of this each an d every day of my life.  I never want this to happen again, for your sake.

Your loving sister, Marci
