The Dvorsky family will always live rent free in my heart. Actor, Father, Husband, and most importantly, a man who made his mark and cared, provided, and protected his family with the time that he had. To Becca & Jane, my heart carries your pain everyday. "May the winds always be at your back, and the sun always be upon your face, and may the winds of destiny carry you aloft, to dance with the stars".

Fond memories of working with Peter at ISG. Always a gentleman even under some of the crazy pressures that we put ourselves under there. He won't be forgotten.

I had the pleasure of working with Peter many years ago at ISG Technologies. I remember Peter as a very warm, kind and extraordinarily intelligent person. I still think of him. The world has lost someone special.

When Jane sent us a photograph from Las Vegas with a note that she had married we were excited and a bit apprehensive. Would would like this Peter? Not only did we like Peter but we loved him for not only his obvious intelligence and talents but for his kind and gentle soul. The Evans Family will dearly miss Peter but hope that his kind and gentle soul is at rest and at peace. Our thoughts and prayers are with Jane and Becca.

Peter and I shared the Tarragon stage in LOOSE ENDS. He was the most generous partner - he made me laugh, he helped me relax into what was a daunting first experience, his eyes were always there to catch me. I will always be aware and thankful for the gifts he gave me. A loving, intelligent, talented human being.

Peter made me laugh like no one else I know. He was a man of enormous talent that used both sides of his brain - a great actor and scientist. There are few people I admire as much. Rest in peace, dear Peter. Make those angels laugh. Love to Jane, Becca and Norma.

I first met and worked with Peter many years ago at the Shaw Festival in a production of St. Joan. He played Dunois with warmth and intelligence and also with immense grace played a foil to Heath Lamperts in the farce Tons of Money. May he rest in peace. My condolences to his family and friends. He was a lovely, gentle, talented man. Peter Krantz

I considered Peter a friend though I hadn't seen him in many years. I will always remember him as such an intelligent, witty and kind man. He was a Mensch - a truly good man. Sending heartfelt condolences to his wife, daughter, sister and family.
