Sorry for your loss! I have fond memories of Peter from BC Alumni Association days. He was a wonderful and kind boss and even better person.

Great man and so much fun on and off the court.A true gentleman.We´ll miss you Peter

Peter is a wonderful person, great tennis player and gentleman, and had a very positive impact on my life. He will be deeply missed. Our thoughts are with the entire McLaughlin family.

I and so many other of his tennis pals feel the deep loss of a guy we loved. Win or lose he was so much fun to play, a true sportsman on and off the court. We´re all hoping he´ll be rewarded with a serve in his next life, where, no doubt Dick Mount awaits, racket in hand. My sincere condolences to all the many McLaughlins who, I´m sure, sent him off in style.

Having played tennis with Peter for over 30 years on a weekly basis I was fortunate to befriend a man of incredible attributes. He will certainly be missed by the so many people who were fortunate to know him. I wish his family and friends my best regards in dealing with their loss.

From first meeting Peter in 1980, he epitomized the ultimate kudo for a gregarious Irishman-"hail fellow well met" His keen intelligence, wit and generous spirit leaves rich legacies to his family, friends, Boston College, St. Col´s St. Seb´s, & Longwood. Everyone forunate to know and love him will miss him forever
