Not sure what to say?

A true Artist who has definitely left his mark in the Art World. I'm grateful to have met him and to have purchased his work.

Although we live far away, your loss is our loss. We are one big family and we always enjoy seeing each other at the shows. Peet has left us with the beauty of his nature, in creating beautiful glass that will last forever. He also gave to us the beauty of himself . Thank you Peet . We wish you the very best in you travels and know that you will be creating beauty where ever you are.

To the family of Peet Robison, including his lovely wife, Susan, Iowa Artisans Gallery, its staff and its customers celebrate the legacy of this wonderful glassblower, who charmed our clientele with his work. Our staff so enjoyed talking with Peet and Susan at the Buyers' Market of American Craft in Philadelphia every year. We are sorry to lose him and wish all of you the very best in adjusting to this change. We learned about Peet's passing on the American Crafts Council's facebook page. We...

Sorry we can't be there at your celebration. Rest peacefully kind one - you are loved by so many.

Sorry we could not make it. Toasting a glass to his spirit right now!!

Very sad news. I first met Peet when he had the glass blowing studio on Canyon Road. I took over his studio there and when I was struggling to keep it going he hired me to help in his new studio. He was truly a kind person, he and his wife Susan were central figures in my early days in Santa Fe.

FLASH! News Report! Lake Lotawana rises due to tears of sorrow and tears of joy, celebrating the loss of life and love of life of Peet Robison. If you knew Peet you have gotten to know one of the most amazing warm, fun, talented, and loving people in the world and I am so sad that I was not able to come and celebrate his life that was so full of wonderful family, friends, and fun...golf and glass..health, happiness and joy. He will be forever in my heart. Special hugs to Susan and...

I knew Peet from PCD (he was one year ahead) but I was amazed to see what an accomplished glass artist he was. I've worked for the Corning Glass company for over 20 years and we have Dale Chihuly sculptures in our Headquarters building. Anyone who worked so closely with Mr. Chihuly can truly be considered a world class talent. My condolences to the family and other friends.

Though I hadn't seen Peet since we graduated from high school, I remember him fondly from the Barstow/Pem-Day musicals and the Madrigal Singers. My sympathies to his wife, his daughter and the rest of his family.
