Not sure what to say?

Dad, Thea, Lucy and I went to Leland and Barbara's memorial earlier this month. I have no idea if you guys get to see each other now. If you do, that makes me smile. I miss you and love you so much. Hugs and kisses. Anna

Dad, I miss you. There seems to be things I want to tell you daily. Today we are moving Thea into her dorm at Syracuse University. Honors college, of course. Just like you, an over-achiever. Love you SO much! Anna

Peter was a great guy!

I played trumpet for three years in the Vt Youth Orchestra when Peter was conducting and what a joy those early Saturday mornings were. He was a gifted teacher: working with limited resources he made our concerts fun to play in and to listen to. I'll miss his cheerful baton!

Sorry to hear this so after the fact!
Incredibly sad to me.
I love and miss you Peter!

Thank you Peter for being there for me when I gave my senior recital and needed a cello accompanist...and you gladly did it
pro bono...I'll never forget your kindness and generosity....More of which is sorely needed in the world at present. You've given your children a great legacy to follow....Blessings Unending...Rejeanne Jalbert

Wasn't it pleasant, oh brother of mine,
In those old days of lost sunshine.

Dear Paulette, Lucy & Anna,

Nancy and I are so sad to hear this news. Peter was special. He was one of the great characters and kindest hearts I ever met, and I feel privileged tor the years we spent as roommates at his legendary 416 Pearl abode. I think of him often and quote his one-liners to people who never knew him. I will hold him close forever.

Love to you all,

Bob Shaw
