speedyguy 20 Posted July 30, 2007 I remember Pete in his Stoke days in the PL around 1960s. Does anyone have any idea how old he was? It all makes me feel so very old when I hear news like this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It all makes me feel so very old when I hear news like this. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> He was 75 - he died just a few weeks after his birthday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted July 31, 2007 Pete's daughter & grand-daughter have posted on the Eagles site to acknowledge the messages. He was actually 72. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BOBBATH 467 Posted August 2, 2007 Very sad to hear this-I sign on to the Forum after a couple of weeks away and hear both Igor Plechanov and PLJ have passed- what a drag. I recall Pete from the mid sixties with Wolves-one of the giants of the PL. Very sorry to hear this but know he will live in our memories-a fitting epitaph perhaps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
