Not sure what to say?

Peter was my cousin, and I am shocked and deeply saddened to have just learned of his passing. My thoughts and prayers go out to the whole family. My mother, Lorraine Ottmar Baker, and I last saw Peter when he came out to Seattle for the National Broadcast Association's 2002 meeting where we had a lovely dinner with him. He was always a kind and delightful conduit to the goings on of the East Coast wing of the Ottmar family. Rest in Peace, Peter.

Peter was a dear friend of my Jim. They served together in the Army, and Peter helped Jim get a job with a Massachusetts congresswoman. Peter was always a loyal friend to Jim. The last time I saw Peter was at my brother's memorial service in 2004. RIP Peter.

Dear Ottmar Family,
We just learned of Peter's passing and are shocked and saddened. Jim and Peter went to Wake Forest together and Jim just read about his passing in the Wake Magazine. Our deep hearted thoughts and prayers go to the entire family. Peter was a gentle and giving soul and will be missed. Our love and comforting hugs to all. xo

I just learned of Peter's passing and am very saddened by the news. I worked for both he and Jim at Mercury for most of the 1990's. I was fond of and enjoyed working with both of them. Sincere condolences to the family

I was a long time employee of Peter's back in the day during WARA's hey dey. Peter & I had a good working relationship. Anyone who was there knows what I'm talking about as he could often be heard throughout the entire building upon seeing me, yelling my last. I can hear him now....Taaaaaaaah Cheeeeeee! He will be missed

Peter and I were classmates at Attleboro High School.

My prayers to the family at this delicate time.

My sincerest condolences. Prayers,
