Not sure what to say?

I apologize for the late post. But I was a student of Professor Brown at Texas Southern University. His love for God's people and his students was evident in his teaching style. Thank you for treating us to Lobster just to get to know us (your students) and spend time with us. The tour of your Architectural Firm downtown and the walk through the gallery next door will remain in my heart. I know that he is designing and color-coding in heaven. TO MRS. BROWN THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR...

I know this is late. But I was a student of Professor Brown. He was truly a remarkable person. His love for God's people and his unique teaching style will always remain apart of me. One of many trips we were apart of was showing us his Architectural firm downtown and the Gallery next to it. Thanks for treating us, your students, to Lobster just to spend time with us and get to know us better. I know that he is building and color-coding in Heaven. Thank you God for the time we had....

Peter was a wonderful person. I met him at the university of Pennsylvania. He introduced me to the famous architect Khan one time when Khan visited the Architecture Dept. at Penn. He was so caring and thoughtful about everything and everybody. May he find peace and eternal rest with The Lord in Heaven!

I appreciated and enjoyed my friendship with Peter, who was a mentor, and a knowledgable, thoughtful & informed civic leader.
Observing his approach to life taught me. Joe Siff

My sincerest condolences to your family. I have fond memories of Peter working with my father, Luis Lemus, and myself. Peter was such a dynamic personality. He was and is the definition of a citizen architect. Through his endeavors, he always aimed to improve the City of Houston and make the lives of its citizens better. I know his legacy will continue through his children and the generations to come.

Peter Brown and US Rep. Earl Blumenauer

Peter's compassion for all Houstonians will truly be missed. He was a tireless advocate for improving the quality of life for all. I greatly enjoyed the conversation between Peter and Rep. Earl Blumenauer on a visit to Houston in 2012, as they discussed the importance of transit, walkability, accessibility, health..... Houston is a better place because of Peter.

OPeter and I became friends at the U of H in undergraduate school and stayed connected for the duration. He was fun visionary and important to Houston

You have my deepest sympathy. May the God of loyal love comfort the family during your time of sorrow. Psalms 119:7
