Created September 22nd, 2025

We are organizing this campaign to assist the family of  Ret. NYPD 2nd Grade Detective Peter Gianatiempo who left this world too soon. Peter is survived by wife Dawn and two children Pete and Nicole.

Peter gave 26 years of his life to the New York City Police Department. Peter was well respected within the ranks of the NYPD and embodied an illustrious career as a highly decorated Detective, spending 19 of his 26 years within the Organized Crime Control Bureau, working in many capacities, including Narcotics. He amassed a multitude of medals, accolades, promotions, was a 9/11 first responder, and proudly followed in the footsteps of his father, also an NYPD Detective.   

 Peter will always be remembered for how he lived. He was a husband, a father and Hockey Coach.

Peter loved spending time with his family, fishing, hunting, and also the many children he had the pleasure of coaching in Hockey. As he would say, many who crossed paths with Peter left “fingerprints on his heart”. 

 The loss of Peter will leave a void in the lives of his wife Dawn, his children, his family, and anyone else who was lucky enough to call Peter a friend.

Pete was one of a kind and will certainly be missed. Below our son posted about Pete: Rest in Peace Coach Pete. It’s hard to put into words what Coach Pete meant to me and so many others. He wasn’t just a coach, but a mentor, and a role model. Coach believed in us even when we didn’t in ourselves. He pushed us harder and never made us settle for less than our best. His lessons went far beyond the game! Treating us like young adults and not like kids, preparing us not just for hockey but also for life. Thank you Coach for everything you taught me, I carry those lessons with me everyday. You will be missed, but not forgotten! 🕊️💙 Brendan McGrath
