Peter and I started at the Post Office the same day back in 1993 and until eight years ago we didn’t get the chance to work together until I became his supervisor in Mattapan. And from day one Peter was as reliable as the days is long and always had a great disposition about his work and was a guy I could count on, like most of his fellow carriers in Mattapan. Peter was like clockwork coming through the door in his Patriots or Red Sox hat and or sweatshirt around 7:15 or so with the great smelling, sub sandwich, steak tips or chicken he would have for breakfast. He went about his rounds greeting everyone by name and when taking a few hours off he would give his replacements carriers a mail set up that could deliver itself since he put in order by name and apartment. He will be missed, as he has been these last few months, up and down Blue Hill Ave and all of Mattapan.
Peter lived as his own man and loved life like we all should be able to.
That’s what I admire most about Peter and I will miss him dearly. I will continue to wait for him to come through the door each morning if only in my heart!
RIP Peter
Our thoughts and prayers are with the Duffy family, he was a great guy and will be sadly missed. Laurie and Jackie O’Brien
