He was my friend, guitar teacher, and my guitar hero. He gave me the gift of music. I think about him almost every time I play. He help me pick out and buy my first two guitars. We were house mates for a bit. I will dearly miss him and
I regret we never did reunite. I hope to see you in the next world, but I might be late. You were a Voodoo Child and a Magic Boy.
I had every opportunity to have major disagreements with Pete... we wrote music together (along with Dave Cook). And we did have disagreements over a variety of details that anyone that has tried to create music will relate to. Pete was the quickest of the 3 of us to form a disagreement or an opposed opinion. Yet throughout the entire pressured filled hours of creating our music together he never was a disagreeable person. Always passionate but always a committed partner. The music we created was the baseline for our relationship but our connection went much further. I will miss you Pete.
Pete was a sensitive, intelligent friend. We shared, shouldered and laughed.
It was wonderful to know him.
My deepest condolences.
I really enjoyed Pete’s CD. I am a musician myself and we talked about getting together to play but unfortunately it never happened. He was a good man. Rest in peace brother

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
In a busy ,challenging life it is great to share moments of peace and clarity with friends. My friend Pete brought both when he was there. Just recently getting close with Pete was a privilege I will cherish while I miss him deeply.
I’m so sad that our cousin Peter has passed on, too soon it seems. I remember him as a little boy of maybe 4 years old, sitting cross legged on our living room floor in shorts, looking up at me with those beautiful brown eyes rimmed with thick lashes, a very sweet smile on his face. I was about 16 and thought how wonderful it would be to have a little son like him some day. I remember him again as a young man at our Aunt Elaine’s funeral, that same sweet smile as he sat there respectfully listening to me regale him with family history and stories. I felt blessed to have remade his acquaintance after years on opposite coasts through Facebook, to listen to his original songs and hear about his band. He always made thoughtful comments to me and seemed to consider what he said carefully. He was a sweet, gentle soul who will be missed by his family and friends, who I know loved him very much. May Peter Rest In Peace.
So sad to hear the news about Oete , he was kind , gentle and had a fabulous smile. He will be missed
So sad to hear about the passing of our friend and co-worker, Peter Pavlonis. He was a sweet man and worked very hard to do his best in his Investigations position for Suffolk County. His kind smile will be truly missed around the office.
Rest In Peace Peter. Rock on in Heaven. It was an honor to know you. Love, Aimee and Bobby
I am so sorry to hear of Peter’s passing. He was a special person who I will truly miss.
Peter played with his band at my 16th birthday party. I had so many fun times with him throughout high school. Hanging out at the beach. GOOD TIMES! I recently. 6,7 years ago saw him at a meeting where he approached me when he recognized me. Rest in Peace old friend.

We are so sorry for loss. Also, we extend our condolences to Antonio and Diane, as well.
Peter, you will be missed. your smile and goodness will always be with us. may you have peace and love and continue to be your sisters special guy.❤️❤️
I had the privilege of meeting Peter when I was in dire need of a mason to do repairs. He was humble and told me he had not done that work for a number of years, but would see what he could do. We picked up the materials that were needed, and the rest was history. He never lost his touch. Next encounter was when we started to play together. We played in Mt. Sinai, and his guitar playing was something else. He will be greatly missed by all.
Peter was one of my best friends. We had such a great time sharing and listening to music together. I loved to listen and see him play his guitar. He had such a great sound and was a wonderful talent. We lost contact over the years but I never stopped thinking about those great times. Peter sent me some great music he had created in 2016 and I am forever grateful. I will always treasure those times in my memory. I hope Peter is jamming with the other great artists in heaven. Peter, may the peace of god be with you. Our thoughts and prayers to you and your family.
I met Pete at a time in my life that I really needed a friend, and he was a gift from God. We spent quite a bit of time together talking and just living in the moment. He helped me really see life in a whole new light, one that changed my life and my family’s. We will be forever grateful for his friendship and support over the past few years. His gentle way and caring soul was like a beacon of hope and strength.
God Bless you my friend and may you Rest In Peace. Forever grateful for our friendship.
My deepest condolences to Pete’s family.
He was my dear friend and a fellow traveler.
We shared many happy times and sad times as well. My fondest memories are of Pete helping me with recording my songs. Playing along with myself,Bill and Sam in “the talent show”
And his amazing solo performance in that same show
Pete and I grew close over the years and I feel as if I have lost my brother.
Rest In Peace dear friend.
