Rest easy mate

Pete’s passing is a heartbreaking reminder that we may never truly know the battles someone is fighting within.
Sometimes the people who are hurting the most are the ones who quietly say “I’m okay”
Just because a person is okay today doesn’t mean they will be okay tomorrow
People fighting suicidal thoughts deserve credit for every single day they choose to stay.

Pete
Forever 48

I will never stop loving you

Pete
You were a great guy, the life of the party, you would brighten up any room, you had a way with horses and were fearless when hopping on a breaker or an unknown horse.
I’m sure your up there with a herd of Pegasus & Unicorns xx

to peters family and friends im thinking of you all fly high pete more help is needed for people in stress

Dear Peter, we are all saddened to hear of your passing. I am sorry that we never had the opportunity of late to catch up connect and share your latest news. I’m so sorry to hear you were not OK. We will remember your special touch with our horses and your horsemanship over the years. Pete the horse whisperer. There was nothing you couldn’t do. Pete you will be missed. With love to you Pete and deepest condolences to all who loved you from all the Docksey Family in Briagolong (previously of Foster) rest in peace mate xxx

My heart and prayers are with Pete’s family and his partner, Dom.

I first met Pete twelve years ago when I was brand new to this country and to the area. He gave me my very first job milking at Mark Bland’s farm in Foster. From the start, he was kind, protective, and generous enough to welcome me into his world. And what a world it was. Pete was sharp, strong, and genuinely funny—the kind of person who could make you laugh until you felt young again. He had an incredible natural talent, playing the piano by ear and singing beautifully.

Above all, Pete was a giver. If someone was in need, he showed up with his time, his hands, and his heart. When storms flooded our creek and washed out five acres of boundary fencing with our sheep inside, Pete and a mate came out and rebuilt the entire fence. He flatly refused to take a single dollar for it. When Jenny’s father passed away suddenly and I had to stay behind to run the farm and business, Pete stepped in without hesitation to drive her all the way to the Melbourne airport so she wouldn’t have to take the bus. That was just who he was: selfless, caring, and living entirely on his own terms.

Though Pete carried his own deep, quiet struggles, the generosity, warmth, and laughter he shared with the people around him were completely real. My heart breaks for his family, his friends, and dear Dom.

Forever young, Pete. You will always be in our hearts.

Rocky and Jenny

My darling friend , sing , dance , play music and generally misbehave with the Angels xxx I hope you knew how much i loved you xxx Gone but never forgotten ❤️ Rest easy my beautiful friend , GOOD TIMES GOOD TIMES

Dearest Pete,
So many fun memories of our time spent working together. Riding side by side laughing and joking as we went. Trips to the races in the truck, afternoons at the stables and the occasional drink after work!
I’m sorry you felt you couldn’t stay but I’m grateful that I knew you while you were here.
Remembered fondly always
Rhee

Shocked by the news.
Pete you were one in a million.
I will miss your humour, our conversations about music, and making your lattes.
I wish I’d known you were struggling. I wish we had more time.
Love you mate xx
Sending much love to Dom and Pete’s family. x

Peter

Sincere condolences to your family
Glenda and Jim

It is so sad to Here this is what it came too poor Pete He was a person whose heart was always open, radiating a quiet, steady kindness that made everyone around him feel seen and valued. His generosity wasn’t just in what he gave, but in how he gave—with a genuine warmth and an unwavering desire to lift others up, even when he was carrying his own heavy burdens. The world feels a little dimmer without his light, but the mark he left on our lives through his selflessness and gentle spirit remains a beautiful, enduring gift.i will miss you may you be at peace now in the angels arm in heaven xxo

No words can ease the heartache we feel.

The lifetime of memories we share together, from walking to school, to family bbqs, sneaking a cheeky cig.. having a scotch and shooting the shit..
Laughing through the lows of our lives, and celebrating our wins.

I will miss your laugh and smile.

Condolences to all your loved ones.

Pete, what a kind, generous, spirited, funny and talented man. So sorry that the world became so dark for you when you were such a bright light in it and brought happiness to so many people’s lives.
Love and thoughts to all of Pete’s loved ones.

Sending our deepest condolences to the family. We have such fond memories of the wonderful times we shared, both when we visited you and Dom in Toora and when you guys came down to Melbourne. I remember always when Grace and Antonio playing around with you. You will be dearly missed.

Rest in peace Pete. With love, Robert, Wendy, Grace, and Antonio xoxo”

Sad loss of a kind and gentle soul. We remember with fondness, times spent at Griffiths Racing, where you became much more than an employee. Great times including sing alongs and piano playing afternoons. The kindness you showed to our daughter throughout that time will never be forgotten RIP Pete

Heaven needed another angel
Though many many years have passed since we spoke I will hold our child hood memories forever in my heart
Rest easy mate you will be forever missed

A true sweet gentleman. It has been a minute since I last saw you Pete but reading these messages I can see you never changed over the years. Still a beautiful boy with a big heart x. You will be sadly missed, gone too soon x

Oh you beautiful soul, Pete you were a true light of life. I remember people placing bets on where you parked the horse when you were at the Foster pub! You made me proud to be a part of OUR community in South Gippsland. The stories are legendary and will live on, I can promise that.

I wish you could have given us more stories. And settled that bet…

Rest in peace mate
