The passing of Pete Makiri

From Phil Pautz (Pete's Ops Manager)

'Pete had an incredible work ethic, but what stood out even more was the kind of person he was.

Nothing was ever too hard for him, and he fit into our dynamic straight away, as if he’d always been there.

He had a way of making everyone feel comfortable, endearing himself to people without even trying.

He was honest, kind, and had a great sense of humour. I still remember meeting him for the first time — that wry smile told me everything I needed to know.

Pete was simply a lovely human being, the sort of person who would do anything to help if you asked, and often even if you didn’t'.
