Not sure what to say?

I first met Peter as a real estate colleague in the 1980s and later worked for some years alongside him at MacDonald Realty.
I came to know Peter a bit more during his illness, as my husband John Turnbull coincidentally had the same rare condition and also received a bone marrow transplant. In recent weeks, John and Peter had shared walks and conversation. Peter was always a practical person, gracious and unpretentious--and he accepted the reality of his last months with great dignity...

I new Peter's sisters, Carol and Patsy all through my school years from kindergarten through grade 12 but did not really know Peter back then. We connected many years later through real estate transactions and stayed in touch with several lunches each year. We lost touch again for a year and finally reconnected this past June. Peter, and another old friend and colleague, Dave Price, and I had lunch together at the Sunshine Diner. It was a very enjoyable lunch and one that I had hoped would...

Being a good friend of his sister Carol,(also father John) in the sixties & seventies while BYC boating, I knew him better in Real Estate, in later years. Great guy, and very professional. Big hugs for Patsy, Carol, and their families from all the Partons; Les (Deborah, Evelyn, William), Gerry (Lise, Spencer, Sean), Doug (Linda, Kyle), Margaret (Gavin, Jamie), Mary (Mike).
May the Lord's Peace and Comfort be with you all.

We figured out how to open pop bottles together and proceeded to open every...

I was only privliged to have know Peter for a few short years but I remember him as a genuine, kind, friendly and charming man. My condolences go out to Peter's family.

Sincere condolences to Peter's family.

Peter was nothing less than amazing, a true professional in the real estate business with a personal touch to put his clients at ease. Peter sold my Mother's home just as my Father passed away; not an easy time but Peter eased my Mother thru the process ever so gently & respectfully. Both Mom and Dad got to know Peter a few years before and took a real liking to him; Mom was thrilled when he called her a few times after she'd moved out to White Rock just to say hello. On behalf of myself and...

Celebrating a life well lived. We will cherish the memories forever.
