Peter Hampton Hornbarger

West Point, 1955

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Dan Ludwig on July 2, 2008:

At St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Eggertsville, NY (Buffalo subburb)on Sunday afternoon, an estimated 150 family, friends, and church members attended a memorial service celebrating the life of our departed classmate,Pete. That evening, Tanya Miller hosted a reception at her home for the Hornbarger family and friends. Yesterday morning, Pete's ashes were interred during a private ceremony at Forest Lawn cemetery in Buffalo. A beautiful floral tribute in black, gold, and gray from our Class served as a backdrop as airmen of the local U.S.A.F. Reserve unit provided the traditional military salute and Taps. Pete's children asked that his classmates attend this rite as well. It was a fitting farewell to a great friend for those who knew him so well. Cliff & Edie Jones, Dick and Sandy Wargowsky,and Dan & Donna Ludwig were honored to be in attendance
