Peter's passing is a shocking loss to his
compatriots of Philadelphia Continental Chapter, Sons of the American Revolution. He
was our Chancellor and will be truly missed.

Dear Sabine,
I was truly sorry to read about the passing of Peter. The two of you made our time in Philadelphia very enjoyable. We think of you often and the good times we shared at Ballard. May he rest in peace. Ellen and Ken Segal

Our sincere condolences to Sabine and the entire family. Peter was a true patriot having served after WWII as a long term commander of the 108th Field Artillery, PA Army National Guard. He was well known for his support of the PA National Guard and other military associations. May "Legalhobble 6" rest is peace. Jim (LTC ret) and Andrea McGill

We have had the honor and pleasure of knowing and associating with Peter for the past sixty two years. Over those many years our relationship has evolved into a very warm and respectful feeling for each of us; more than just casual friends. We are very sorry to hear Peter's sudden passing. He will always be in our prayers; and may God Bless him and grant him eternal rest.
