He has left wayyy too soon, but so it goes with bright lights... May perpetual light shine upon you Peter! I will NEVER forget you! A true renaissance man. A true gentle Warrior. A Fightsports brother forever! I'll see you on the other side"

"Peter, You will always live on in our Hearts and make us stronger when we compete in behalf of your name. You are a strong warrior, and this is why God has called upon you to serve in his Jiu Jitsu Army. Taken from us (Fight Sports)/(Brotherhood BJJ) to to early. But who are we to say. When the Red belt up in the sky calls upon you, We can only seem to smile knowing that you are with all the great ones. love you bro. Have my kimono ready for me when i get up there."

"My First and your Second time at the World's Cup.. 09. Although we have known each other for years. It toke the Love we both have for the sport "Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu" that made us closer and a Greater Friend.... Rest in Peace PETER, My Friend we shall all meet again my Friend..."
"Words can't describe the lost of Pete, his outer image didn't tell the whole story his heart, his feelings, and his love for friendship is something that i will miss forever, we were friends for 20 years, he was always there when i needed anything and that was for everyone. He would lend a hand to anyone thats the type of person he was. I wish i could write a book because that is what i would need to describe the person he was, loved his family and friends. Pete i will miss you with all my heart but when the man above calls your number then its time for you to look over us from the skies , you will be truly missed by some many people but i know that you are in a better place and thats the only thing that gives me comfort, I love you brotha, from: Arby & Jess"
"Pete as I sit here looking at photos of you, Iâ??Ã?ôm also watching your best buddy little Michael sleep and Iâ??Ã?ôm laughing and crying my eyes out at the same time! It was about 15 years ago when we were at Hiro and you forced Sushi on me for the first time in my life! You said â??Ã?úBro! Do I look stupid enough to ever eat something disgusting?â??Ã?ù That made so much sense and Iâ??Ã?ôve been eating Sushi ever since! I will always remember that October day 3 years ago in Daytona at the Ratâ??Ã?ôs Hole when the guy on the mic said â??Ã?úAND IN FIRST PLACEâ??Ã?¶FROM MIAMI, FLORIDAâ??Ã?¶THE STEEL CHIEF BUILT BY PETER BIVONA!!! "WHAT!!! MIENCHA!!! FIRST PLACE!!!" You were so excited and humbled at the same time!!! Pop started crying and you hugged me so hard that my lungs almost collapsed!!! The best part was right after we put the trophy next to the bike, the guy who came in 6th place started talking trash and we (well you) almost ruined the rest of his weekend!!! Last week I was eating pizza with little Michael when he yelled â??Ã?úDaddy look!!! Itâ??Ã?ôs Uncle Pete!!!â??Ã?ù I said â??Ã?úMichael, are you sure thatâ??Ã?ôs him?â??Ã?ù Michael looked at the guy one more time and said â??Ã?úNo Daddyâ??Ã?¶Thatâ??Ã?ôs not Uncle Peteâ??Ã?¶Uncle Pete is WAY BIGGER AND WAY STRONGER!!!â??Ã?ù I love you Bro!!!"
