Peter M. Wege

He used his wealth for good.

I remember him well and his 80th birthday celebration

I remember him well. I worked with him when I was at Warner Norcross & Judd on the foundation. He did so many great things for the city without a lot of fanfare. The help he gave to Mercy Health is appreciated daily.

Wonderful memories of Peter as a supportive board member of Saint Marys Hospital during my management tour 1968-75. Prayers extended to all family and friends. GR is a city where I could have been happy the rest of my life. But God had other plans and I am now retired in the Rocky Mountain!.

You will be missed

It is unfortunate that few people know about Peter's courageous youth in wartime. As a 19 year old kid, Peter regularly flew nearly suicide missions across the Atlantic from South America to Africa and back. On these missions, if you were shot down, you were never found.

God welcome and bless you as you welcomed and blessed us.
