Anne Shlionsky Hagiwara, I just found this page. I was one of the TA he instructed in Ann Arbor. I am grateful that I was his student and I remember him as insightful, wise, deeply well-meaning towards us, eminently respectable.

Dear Anne,
I just found the news about Pete's passing and I offer your my deepest condolences. My parents regarded him as almost another son.

Chère Anne,
Carlo vient juste de m'apprendre la triste nouvelle du décès de Pete. Même si nous ne nous sommes plus revus depuis mon départ d'Ann Arbor en 1969, j'ai toujours gardé un souvenir chaleureux de Pete et de toi, de votre mariage, et des années où nous nous sommes côtoyés au département. Je te présente toute ma sympathie et mes amitiés dans ce moment de grande tristesse.

Le décés de Peter nous affecte profondément. Par Internet le quotidien de sa vie avait fusionné et nous suivions presque jour pour jour ses projets, ses voyages, ses épreuves, sa solitude de l'âge aussi. il nous avait chaleureusement accueilli sur le sol américain et c'est sur ses traces que nous avons découvert l'Ouest qu'il aimait tant. Sa culture universitaire, aussi profonde que discrète, englobait trois continents et avec sa passion des voyages en faisait un interlocuteur attachant.

My deepest condolences and sympathy to Mrs. Anne Hagiwara and the family for the loss of Professor emeritus Peter Hagiwara. I would not be here as I am now without his help during my residence in the mid-1980s at the University of Michigan. I am ever so grateful that I took his French classes, which resulted in our friendship that lasted for more than 20 years. He will be greatly missed.

I am deeply saddened at learning of Professor Peter Hagiwara's passing. He was a remarkable and truly unforgettable teacher. I had him as a doctoral student to fulfill the foreign language requirement at the University of Michigan, but the class became so much more than simply "meeting a requirement."
