Given nickname by his grandfather just after Pete's birth. Pete was born on the farm during a blizzard, premature and very small. The midwife wrapped Pete in a blanket then placed him near the wood-burning stove to keep him warm. His grandfather walked in from outdoors, looked at the baby and commented, "Hell, he ain't no bigger than a peter-dick bird." The family called the baby Pete from that day on.
