Peter Matfield Wynn

We still have our same golfing group. We still talk about Pete and how much knowledge and fun he brought to the group. I truly miss you my friend.

It has been 9 years since we lost this great guy. We still talk about Pete when we are out golfing.

Little things keep popping up in my daily life that bring up memories of Peter. It is still hard, a year later, to believe that he is actually gone.

I was so saddened to receive a call from Lasley Scholl, my lifelong friend, directing me to an obituary in the L.A.Times, where I saw Peter’s picture and read the story of his remarkable life.

At this stage of our lives, it is always difficult, though not entirely unexpected, to lose an old friend, and when that happens, it usually prompts a flood of memories. Peter was my first ‘boyfriend’ and I’m pretty sure I was his first ‘girlfriend’. We were all of fourteen years...

I and our family thank you enormously for your kind wishes and for your memories of Peter. It is wonderful to hear from you, those we haven't seen in far too long and those I've not met but who knew Peter before I did. I've read your comments many times over and will again.

Oh, how sad I am to have just heard of Peter's death. What a privilege it was to know him and to work with him. I think of Peter in his little convertible, chomping on his one cigar of the day, his forehead and knees sun and wind burned from the morning on the golf course. He was wise and funny and always a calm port no matter the storms around him. He will be profoundly missed.

I attended MAD High in the 50's school along with Peter . He was very active and poplar. I remember Pete had part in the in the class play which i was also in and what great fun we had on the stage!

I like to believe that "life' is a series of "stages" and that Peter has left this "stage" for another.

Bon voyage, Pete!
