Pete worked at many jobs in his life in Santa Barbara, excelling at landscaping and handyman services.

He customized numerous Harley Davidson Softails and could be found riding and working on them in his spare time.

The couple moved to St. Maries, ID in 1996 and in 1997 their son Shiloh David Pfeiffer was born. The family moved to Calder, ID where he resided until his passing. Pete could be seen riding his beloved chopper or his Harley Davidson every chance he could.
