Not sure what to say?

I remember Peter as an extremely competent professional and learned of his departure with regret while googling him to solicit his services this morning, feb 8, 2021.

I am deeply moved to hear that Peter died. He was a remarkable scientist, who accomplished so much.

Linda and I were saddened and shocked to learn about Pete' passing. Our sincerest condolences to Karen and family. We remember all the times we would see Pete and Karen in Smalland. Pete always took time to speak with us and was genuinely interested in how we were doing. Pete and Ken had two things in common, both grew up in Quincy and both graduated from Northeastern. We will miss him. R.I.P. Pete

Dear Karen and Family,
I was so shocked to hear the news and have no words to express my sincerest condolences to you all. Pete always made us feel at home when we visited, and even when we we were there and you were away traveling. Even after a status changes when I had the chances to see you at the vacation house or other events, both Karen, Pete and all still made me feel family and that meant the world to me. I will never forget his thirst for knowledge and peoples opinions and...

Dick and I just learned yesterday of Peter's untimely death. What a shock! So many memories: cousins playing together as children, summer visits to Smalland, holidays with Nana and Baba, that special dinner in Paris...and more. Love, blessings, and peace as we all adjust to life without his vibrant spirit in our midst.

Dear Karen, so very sorry to hear of Petes sudden death. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. We have many happy memories of you both on bike rides, playing softball, volleyball and swimming. I will always remember the day you saved me after I jumped off the raft and thought I could swim to shore! Pete was a kind soul who will remain in our hearts forever. Love, Camille & Rich

Dear Joanne and extended family,

We are sorry to hear of the sudden loss of Peter. While we did not know him, he sounds like an incredible person, who has led a life so full of love and adventure - Joanne, it is easy now, to understand how your own family is always on the go, traveling, trying new things and living life to the fullest - this was instilled in you early on and your dad's passion for life continues on through you and the next generation.

May the happy...

Dear Karen, Julie, Joanne, Peter and Families, My Heart goes out to all of you as you deal with the sudden loss of your beloved Pete. Pete was a true "Man for All Seasons", as many have attested. I am Blessed to have know and enjoyed time with the Monsen Family since the 70's. Even as the least athletic of people, Pete always made sure I felt included in the Group Events, making for so many Good Memories. Love and Prayers, Karen Foltz

The world has lost a special soul, and were honored to have been able to call him friend. Our heartfelt condolences to the family and Karen, the love...
