Peter Anthony Vega was born on June 15, 1965, in San Juan, Puerto Rico. His birth name is actually Pedro Antonio Vega Murphy. The beloved son of Pedro Vega Aponte and Maureen Murphy de Vega. He was the perfect combination of two diverse but complimentary cultures: Puerto Rican and Irish American. His personality was on the quiet but intellectual side and he had a wicked wry sense of humor. He grew up in Brooklyn, NY, and was the guy who could relate to all kinds of people. He was brilliant but humble. He was loving and generous to a fault. He was the perfect son brother grandson and father.
