Dear Peter, I still can't quite believe you are no longer with us. I am so, so sad that I will never be with you again. You and I met in 1981 when we shared a summer house in the Hamptons and since then, we danced to so many Motown songs, so many funky blues songs, and just enjoyed each other's company. Thank you for all the joy you brought to me and to our friends! We will all miss you terribly! You were such a bright light, gone too soon. Love, Alice
