Peter CHARLTON Obituary

PETER CHARLTON, CPA, CA April 15, 1955 - September 3, 2023 Long-term survivor, world traveller Peter died peacefully after a short illness. As someone who lived with HIV for over 40 years, Peter lived his life out loud, proud and to the fullest - as an entrepreneur, competitive athlete and philanthropist. Peter was married to the love of his life, Ken Lomas, who was always patient, generous and kind. And he was stepdad to two beautiful, intelligent and strong daughters, Claire and Ava, who filled his heart with love, pride and joy. Peter grew up in Montreal and moved to Toronto in his 20s. He remained close through the years with his childhood friend, Heather Seeger, and was an extended family member of the Leech clan. Peter had many friends in Toronto, Montreal, Fort Lauderdale and around the world. In the early days of the AIDS crisis, Peter lost many friends who were family. Thanks for Dr. Ken Logue for providing great care to Peter for over 20 years, along with the many other medical teams who helped him survive and thrive over the years. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to Casey House (www.caseyhouse.com). A celebration of life will take place at the Mount Pleasant Cemetery Funeral Centre on Saturday, September 23rd; gathering at 10:30 a.m., service at 11:00 a.m.

For 9 Years I worked with Charles at U+Med and ASA Health. He was a true entrepreneur and all in all a good and generous man. He will be missed.

I am deeply saddened to hear of the loss of my dear friend, bestie who accompanied me and was my tent mate, five years in a row on the 275 mile Aids Bike Rides from Orlando to Miami. Peter and I biked, vacationed together in France and Italy and we enjoyed each other's company for years when he lived in Miami. I suffered his lost over 12 years ago as it was the last time we connected, and now I will miss him forever. Rest in peace my friend, I always will and always have loved you my dear friend and comrade!

To Peters family and loved ones,
Peter was a neighbour to me and was part of our book club. He always had interesting thoughts to share and was very kind. I am sorry for your loss. Please know that he will be missed.
