Peter was a friend and colleague that I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with for much of the last ten years. He was foremost a kind and caring person with a gentle personality; a consummate professional, who respected everyone he met. He was one of the few individuals that I can say I was truly privileged to have known, and I will truly miss him.

My deepest sympathy goes out to Peter’s family.

No words will ever truly cover how anyone feels at this time
So all I can say is I had the pleasure of working beside Peter
For the last 3 yrs and have only ever thought the best of him.
He was a good man and truly loved his family and spoke often
Of them and how they completed him. I think that said volumes
About him and where his heart was.
