To the Burgess family
Whenever Pete's name was mentioned within our family it meant only one thing; pack your kit bag and game on!
Pete 'The' Boss Burgess was an important part of the hockey-playing Barry brothers, especially to my brother Jon who looked up to Pete so very much. As for me I wasn't blessed with the hockey-ing talent that my brother had, but Pete took me as far as I could and I loved every minute of his company, guidance, kindness, generosity, post-match bollockings (far too many) and most importantly his warm nature - coupled with that cheeky grin - that is going to be so missed.
Everyone who loved Pete was loved back. My thoughts are with the family at this time of deep sadness.

Wonderful person - one of a kind
Pete ( Boss) devoted a lot of his time and energy over many years to manage hockey within the County with a great deal of success- we will all miss him greatly
Condolences to Barb ( his rock!) and family
RIP Pete
