It is with great sadness to hear of Peter's passing. His warmth and humour made a difference in so many people's lives. He knew every name and every face at the Granite and kept us all connected. On behalf of my father John White, my wife Janine, and our daughter Kathleen, I want to thank Peter for putting a smile on our face every time we saw him. My monthly visit to Peter was a calming ritual and I'll miss his sense of humour, terrific stories, talk of Smith Falls, and his tremendous respect for everyone around him. To his family, I want you to know just how many lives he touched and that our thoughts are with you now and always. Regards, Christopher J. White

For 15 years I started my mornings once a month at 7:00 by sharing a coffee with Peter and then, when he was ready, he would cut my hair. Only to soon realize he was already behind schedule and it was only the first cut of the day. Forever telling stories with an accompanying laugh that echoed throughout the club, Peter was someone who always made you feel welcome, who always made you smile and who always shared with you the stories of his life. I regret I did not have a chance to share these thoughts with you, his family in person the last week. My sincerest condolences, he will be missed by all who new him.

To the Mallinos Family, We would like to extend our most sincere condolences on Peter's passing. Peter cut David's hair at the "old" Granite Club, and has cut our boys' hair their whole lives. He always had a friendly smile and the most cheerful outlook on life. The world is a sadder place without him. May God bless you all. David, Kathie, Robert, Michael & Virginia Hetherington

Peter has been cutting my hair for 20 years and when it was time to take my son for his first haircut, I made the mistake of taking him to a place that was suppose to specialize in kids haircuts. He screamed the whole time. For his second haircut, I took him to Peter and what a difference. Not only did he not cry, but Peter had him laughing. Whenever we go to the Granite Club, for whatever reason, my son wants to know if we are going to see Peter. I will truly miss Peter. No matter what your day was like, as you walked down the hall towards the Barber Shop, you would hear Peter's laugh and it would instantly put a smile on your face. Peter was a very special person, I am sorry for your loss.

To the Mallinos family. Very sorry we cannot be at the funeral today, but our thoughts are with you. Peter was not only our barber but also a great friend and an example of how to enjoy one's life. He shared our sorrow when my wife died and was a source of encouragement to myself and to my son and daughter in our time of sorrow. He was the first to cut both children's hair, and the only one to ever cut my son's hair--and he is now 29! We are going to miss him. Cherish the memories.

Dear Lynda, Lauri, Michael and Family, It is difficult for me to convey just what a great person Peter was/is. I had the privilege of knowing him for 20 years at the Granite Club. Many there will tell you the same thing I am about to say. To me, he was much more than my barber (and a "darn good" one at that!): he was a friend and "consultant" who always cheered me up and made my day better for having spent some time with him. His enthusiasm for life, his love for his family, his strong work ethic, his eternal optimism and ability to see good in everyone and finally his inner strength, will always be an inspiration to me. His untimely passing seems so unfair but who am I to question God's plan. I am grateful to have had a chance to meet and speak briefly with you last evening. Although we had never met before I felt that I knew you through Peter who spoke of all of you with great love and pride. I can see why. I am extremely sorry that I an unable to attend the funeral service today due to unavoidable business committments but my thoughts and prayers will be with you today. I truly hope that our paths cross in the future. If any one of you needs assistance in any way or simply wants to talk, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me. May God Bless You Always, Joie Watts

Dear Auntie Lynda, Lauri, Jim, Michael, Danielle, Kristina & Jessica, I cannot express how sad, sad, sad I feel for the loss of a truly remarkable man that touched so many lives in so many ways. My memories of Uncle Peter will forever make me smile. I remember way back when Uncle Peter used to come over to give the whole family haircuts. I would try to run and hide but it was no use because Uncle Peter always found me and by the end of his visit I was always sporting yet another 'bowl haircut'. As the years passed, Uncle Peter made his regular visits to upkeep mom and dad's hair...and to consult me on my extreme use of hairspray products. I tried to convince him that big hair was the 'in' thing. I smiled. He just laughed. A few more years passed and Uncle Peter was still making his family haircutting rounds. This time he would consult and debate last night's Leaf game with me. I smiled. He just laughed. Some more years passed. Uncle Peter was still faithfully making his family haircutting rounds...and now we are comparing our new trucks with each other. He started consulting me again. This time it was because I didn't buy a Ford. I smiled. He just laughed. I sit back and think...gee, my Uncle and I had quite a few things in common. An interest in hairstyling, hockey and nice trucks. Each time I saw Uncle Peter, he always had a bright cheery smile and an unforgettable laugh. This went side-by-side with his kindness, generosity and awesome personality. This is how he will forever be remembered in my heart. While I grieve because I have lost a very dear Uncle, my sorrow is unlimited for your loss of your husband, dad, father-in-law and grandpa. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. God bless you and may you find comfort in knowing that Peter Mallinos was a heck of a man who was loved by so many. He was someone that I had the privilege of calling my Uncle. Love to you, Kimberley, Paul, Alyssa & Niccolas Geraci

Dear Lynda, Sandra told me that your husband Peter died over the weekend. I just wanted to let you know that I have been thinking about you. Reading about your husband, and knowing how special he was to you, makes it obvious how hard this must be for you. Please call me when you decide to come up to Mono. 519-940-3592 Love Kelly

My wifeWendy and I were so very sorry to read about Peter's passing in the Globe and Mail.Peter has been cutting my hair for more years than I can remember, going back to when the Granite Club moved to Bayview Ave. and maybe even before that on St. Clair Ave. He worked hard,put in long hours and yet he was always so personable and caring.We will miss him very much! Our thoughts and prayers are with his family. Walter and Wendy Somerville.
