Peter John Christ passed away Nov. 4, 2024.  11/4/2024.  He was born on May 29, 1946 to Albert and Lorena (Stumpf) Christ in Buffalo and died at home in Cazenovia.

He is survived by his wife, Paula J. (Englert) Christ of 50 years and his sister, Joan Faltisco.  He was predeceased by his brother Roy Christ.

After retiring as a captain with the town of Tonawanda Police Department in 1989 he moved to Cazenovia to his dream house in the woods that his wife bought for him. He then co-founded the organization L.E.A.P and devoted the next 25 years advocating for drug legalization.

Please view Peter in action on YouTube “retired police captain demolishes war on drugs” he was only 50,000 views short of 1.5 million. Let’s help him reach that goal.

Peter was very satisfied with his life choices and accomplishments and had no regrets. One of Peter’s many quotes “My life is my art, my existence my canvas.”

A party of life is planned for next summer at his dream house. Condolences for Peter’s family may be left at michaelebrownfuneralservices.com.
