My family and I were deeply saddened to hear of Peter's passing yesterday. We really got to know Peter when my daughter became unwell...over the years he was generous with his time, his smile and his sense of humour. Our deepest sympathies to his wife and family -- Peter, in our thoughts your light shines bright. Even though you are gone from our lives, in our memories you forever live on. ?

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Scanlon family at this sad time. Having taught two of your boys Peter, I can happily say you were the greatest role model any child could ask for. Their memories of you will continue to inspire them (and all in your family) forever. Travel well to the lords hands, God Bless
