Peter was born in New York on January 14, 1943, son of the late Vincent and Carmella (LaMonica) Provenzale. He married the former Nona Stankos in Chicago on September 4, 1976.

Peter loved the outdoors loved participating in the activities offered by Challenge the Outdoors. He enjoyed grocery shopping, and of course, the cooking that was sure to follow. In his free time he played computer card games and Scrabble, and was an avid follower of Fox News. Peter was a family man who was loyal to his wife and children. His loyalty did not end there – he was a steadfast republican and proud to be one of Donald Trump’s greatest supporters.
