Peter Dunbar

Dear Sally
I received the news today of Peter's passing. It does not seem possible given Peter's embrace of life. From our time together at First Valley and First Presbyterian and in the years after Peter always set the example. For him it really was better to give than to receive and he gave freely of his time, his treasure and especially his love. In a politically correct era he still understood that a hug could bring comfort and joy and I will miss his hug in greeting. His loss will be...

Dear Sally, We are missing your charming husband, Peter already. We have been in quiet denial of his passing since the first time we got the news. We are weeping for you. His love and admiration for you was clear to us in about 10 different ways. Blessings and courage are on their way to you from us. Robert and Jeanne Mosebach

Hi Sally
I am so very sorry for your loss. I lost Tom on August 22,2015. So I feel for you.

I grew up in the First Presbyterian Church of Bethlehem, PA, where Peter's ministry of presence had a profound impact on me as child, teenager, and young adult. Even among all those folks in that great, great church, Peter's singular countenance stands out in my memory to this day. His warmth, grace, and strong, loving embrace is just unforgettable -- even decades later. Thank you, Peter, for showing me what is possible in the simple ministry of momentary encounter. Sally, Jill and I are...

Dear Sally, we are very sorry to hear about Peter's Passing. We still talk about your 40th birthday and how much fun we had with yourself and Pete. Those were great days. We will always remember Pete's warm smile and mild demeanor. Peter will be missed by everyone he new.

Our deepest condolences,
Lucy and Vince Tomanio

Dear Sally and Family:

These words capture the Peter I will always remember: "Peter Dunbar was a man of exuberant love and joy whose warmth of spirit embraced all. He had an abiding faith in God's amazing grace." Always to be counted on for a hug and a kiss, Peter was a joy to be with. His frequent presence in daily chapel when he was in Princeton was a testament to his faith. And it was always so obvious to me that he LOVED Sally. I trust God to provide the strength you need for...

Dear Sally,

Judy and I are deeply saddened to receive the surprising news of Peter's death. We are grateful for the comfort and faithfulness you have evidenced in the announcement to the campus community which Jim just distributed. We will continue to pray for you and for your family as you mourn this loss, asking especially for the constant assurance that your separation is not final We are grateful for Peter's life, his witness, his good humor, and for the gift of precious...

To say I am in total shock is an understatement. I just saw him less than two months ago when he came to my office for his taxes. Sally, if you need anything, please don't hesitate to call me. Peter was one of the finest gentlemen I have ever known. A total class act, with an undivided optimism in life, god, and his family. He talked to me many times about Andrew and Heather and his lovely grandchildren. Although I never met his kids personally, I feel I knew them through Peter's kind...
