In Memory Of
Peter A. "Pete" Salamida
1951 - 2020
Peter enjoyed spending time with his entire family and especially enjoyed joking around with his grandchildren. He was an avid bowler who has had many 300 games with his highest game being an 854 triple. Peter enjoyed playing softball, basketball, watching the Yankees, and playing poker with his son and his friends. He loved being in the sun and listening to music on his boom box by the pool. Peter especially enjoyed fulfilling his life long dream of going to Vegas with his friend Joe made possible by his nephew Chris. He had a deep love for his cat Bella who has now been taken in by Jason, Erica, and Luca.
Peter is survived by his children, Jason (Erica) Salamida, Shannon (Philipp) Moroskey, and Ashley (Kyle) Slingerland; grandchildren, Ryan, Luca, and Skylar; sisters, Donna Salamida and Linda (Frank) Anderson; brothers, John Salamida and Bobby (Kathy) Salamida; sister in law, Gail Salamida; and a host of nieces, nephews, and friends.
Peter is predeceased by the mother of his children, Pamela Salamida; his brother, Joey Salamida
