Peter J. Desio

I just learned of Dr Desio´s passing. Like many, he was my professor at UNH. He was a brilliant, kind and extremely witty person. I am glad I knew him and am better for it. God blesss "Desio".

Peter (Doctor Desio) was one of my professors when I was attending the University of New Haven in the late sixties. I especially remember his classes in Organic Chemistry. He was always well prepared. He made it easy to learn the material. I last talked to him a few years ago. He was a terrific person who had a positive influence on my life and no doubt many others. I will miss him. Bob Manzella

I am a boyhood friend of Peter. I grew up a few blocks from Peter in East Boston. We became friends when we were classmates at Boston English High School. Peter was a brilliant student in all our classes then consisting of chemistry, physics, math and Latin. We stayed in touch over the years, and I was aware of his incredible courage and the suffering he endured. Peter was also a great fan of the opera and especially those composed by Puccini. I last spoke with Peter about two weeks before...

So sorry to learn of Peter´s passing. He and I were graduate students at The University of New Hampshire. We have kept in touch over the years. I remember Peter´s sense of humor, his gentleness and his love of teaching. Harry McKone Palm Sori gs CA
