PETER HAJE Obituary

HAJE--Peter R.

The partners, counsel, associates and staff of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison express profound sorrow at the passing of our beloved former partner, Peter R. Haje. For more than five decades, Peter served as a mentor, colleague, partner, client and trusted friend to all members of the Paul, Weiss family. Peter's wit, charm, generosity and wisdom will be deeply missed. He was one of a kind. We express our deepest sympathies to Helen and the other members of the Haje family.

As a young man in the early 80s I was all too briefly at Paul Weiss. I have never forgotten Peter Haje. Over the intervening 35 years, he was been a person I have thought of with some frequency as serving as a role model for decency, integrity and intelligence in the corporate world. My condolences.

My deepest sympathy for the loss of your beloved Peter. May you allow the God of all comfort to strengthen you during this difficult time. He knows the depth of the pain in each of your hearts, look to God in prayer. He will give you the support you need. Psalms 145:14,18

To the Haje Family: My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there's a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring.

My deepest condolences to Helen and family. I have known Peter so many years through my father, Sam Friedman, and he was one of the kindest, finest, most thoughtful people I have ever known. I wish you strength and assure you that Peter will be missed. We are poorer without him.
