Dear Lines Family It is with deep sadness that I send my heartfelt condolences for the immense loss you have faced. I will always remember Pete for his infectious grin and quick sense of humour, always ready with a joke and a smile. I feel truly fortunate to have known him. His absence will be deeply felt, not only within your family but also throughout the wider community. Always missed, never forgotten. With love, Summa
Legend is a word bandied about these days, but in this case a well deserved honour for you mate. Your help and assistance and friendship were vital to us when we moved into Wakefield. Your memory will go on with all the people you touched along the way. RIP. Steve
To the Lines family our deepest sympathies to you all at this extremely sad time 🌹
Rip to a wanderers legend. A family man who loved the land he worked on every day. Massive hugs to Marlene and his children and family. Xoxo.
On behalf of the Jordan family, our deepest sympathies to Peters wife and family. Our family have known the Lines family our entire lives and were so sadden to hear the tragic news of Peters passing. We all have our memories of both Peter and his siblings as well as his parents and grandparents. An amazing life lived to the full, thank you for sharing this with us all. A wonderfull service and tribute, sincere condolences to you all.
I had the pleasure of meeting Peter several times over the years to photograph him for magazine articles. He was a lovely character and I was so sorry to hear about the accident. My heart goes out to his family.
I don't think you waited around for things to happen Pete! A life well lived. RIP.
