The following obituary of Bethany resident G. Peter Nugent, 49, is from the Cody-White Funeral Home:

G. Peter Nugent, 49, of Bethany, CT, beloved husband of Jacqueline Nugent, passed away suddenly on November 5, 2016.

Born on November 16, 1966 in Stamford, CT, he was the son of LaVerne Marie Burzynski and the late Gerard Peter Nugent, Sr. Peter graduated from Southern Connecticut State University with a BA in Physical Education but found his true passion was being creative.

He started his own Home Improvement Business which flourished for 20 years and found great pleasure in bringing peoples’ visions to reality. While his business was a large part of his world, nothing was more important to him that than time spent with family and friends. He seemed to know people where ever he went. He loved country music, especially Jason Aldean, and was passionate about The New York Yankees and NASCAR. He was known for his generosity and kindness as well as making everyone laugh at his bad jokes.

In addition to his wife and mother, Peter is survived by his children, Gillianne Rose and Madeline Marie Nugent; siblings, Marykay (Paul) Wishneski and Christopher (Doreen) Nugent; nieces and nephews, Henry, Emma, and Jack Wishneski, and Christopher Jr., and Danielle Nugent; and many friends and family.
