Not sure what to say?

I met Dr. Gundersen when I worked at LB Community Hospital. He was beloved by staff and patients. Sometimes awkward, sometimes a bit peculiar, but always a wonderful doctor. RIP dear man.

Dr. Gunderson was a wonderful (and eccentric) man. I was working at Long Beach Community Hospital when I met him. I was so grateful for his help when we really needed it.

I was so sorry to hear of Peter's passing. He was a great friend and a very bright, caring resident physician when I worked with him at Metro General Hospital in Cleveland.

To the family of Peter Mason Gundersen, I am so sorry for your loss. I'm sure you will miss him dearly. Please find comfort in knowing one day we will see our loved ones again. John 6:40. Matthew 5:5.

With deepest sympathy, may the power of prayer ease your sorrow, give you peace and provide much comfort for you and your family during this difficult time. (Matthew 21:22)

As secretary of the Harvard Class of 1955 and on behalf of the class, may I offer my condolences to the family. I know that all of his classmates and friends will be as sorry as I was to receive the news.

Peter was a friend of many Gundersens here in LaCrosse WI.Although we lost contact with him and his family in the past many years, he has been in our thoughts.I would like to hear from Skip re Peter's recent years. 508 775 6616; [email protected]

I had lost contact with Peter the last few years but thought of him often as we were good friends when we were at Harvard together and many rears after. I hope his later years were good and happy.
