We loved you

Rest in Peace my friend. May God bless you and your family

I was sorry to hear of Pete Gulden's death. I ran against him in track. I was a Northampton High School athlete. I appreciated competing with him since I saw him as a compassionate and caring opponent. I enjoyed enjoyed running against him and found him to be an challenging competitor. I can remember vividly the preparation our team would undergo to get ready to try and subdue Palmerton. After his graduation I never saw him again, but our competing with one another remains a vivid...

Tres and Dave:

I have so many wonderful memories of your Dad. He was a fabulous guy and a great friend. We shared many great and some worrisome times together starting in medical school, then serving as flight surgeons in Viet Nam in 1967-8 and then later as Residents at Jackson Memorial Hospital. It was in Miami that through your father and mother, I met Judy Dobbs, my wife of 40 years (and counting.) Your father was a smart, compassionate, athletic, handsome, funny, loyal, engaged...

I was greatly saddened today when I learned of Pete's passing. He was truly a wonderful friend, neighbor, school mate, basketball player,and someone I always had fun with. God Bless You! My sincerest sympathies to his entire family.

Classmate at W&J College ('61). Pete and I had many pre-med classes together and he was always a real gentleman. Intelligent and always ready to help a classmate. I recall that in our freshman chemistry "weed-out" class the instructor said to look to the guy on your left and right, 2 out of 3 of you won't be there in 4 years. I was in the group of 3 with Pete and we ALL made it and became compassionate physicians. Didn't know until now that Pete and I shared the same speciality. May God...

Pete Gulden & Roommate Bob Hallman W&J 1961

Pete was a Phi Psi fraternity brother at W&J College; and, he was my "Big Brother" when I was a Phi Psi pledge in 1959. Will always remember Pete as being a leader, focused on becoming an MD, having a sense of humor; and, knowing how to have fun with his friends. On the fun side, I recall coming into Pete's room on the top floor of the fraternity house where he shared a room with Bob Hallman, his close friend and fellow W&J basketball player. On this particular day, I discovered a maze of...

my deepest sympathy to the Gulden family. Pete was a wonderful young man and I am not at all surprised that he turned out to be a wonderful physician and parent. )Peter...RIP

I was Pete's college room mate, fratenity brother and basketball team mate. We didn't keep in close contact but when we did talk by phone and recently at his home it was as though all the years vanished and we were 20 again. Pete will be forever a part of me and I believe I am a much better person because he was my friend...I miss him dearly already.
