PETER YEARLEY

Loss of a truly fine man. So sorry for all who loved him. MaryB Barlow

I was his boss, we were peers, then he was my boss, and then we were peers again. At the end we just ended up as friends. In all this time of nearly 20 years, he never changed. He was always positive, always nice, super smart ! While I was his boss, I provided him with a personal coach as he seemed to be at times very reserved. A few years later he ended up as the best public speaker in our division ! Forgot to mention his fine sense of humour and the many political discussions we had where...

This is an admittedly unique tribute post, but I thought family and friends might appreciate my sharing. In a nostalgic mood, I was perusing the online photo library of my childhood summer camp Camp Belknap on Lake Winnipesaukee, where I spent 6 of the best summers of my life (2017-2022). While looking through the folder of images from the summers of 1979-1981, I came across a photo of a leader and a camper in front of what looks to be the Besserer division lodge. Curious about the story...

I am heartbroken for you Mia and your wonderful children Rowan, Petra and MacKay and all your family. I feel deeply blessed to have become a friend of yours and of course your inspirational Peter. Sending you all my love and ongoing support today and always. May the outpouring of love from family and friends from around the world help you with your grief. Holding you all closely in my head and heart.

He was such a kind person. I knew him through Mia many years ago, but it seems like only yesterday. I am sorry for your loss.

I worked with Peter for 15 years. Peter was a pleasure to work with, smart, tough when necessary, strong under pressure and above all these he was honest, fair and a team player. Peter has left us far too early. My condolences to Peter's family and friends.

We already miss Pete's self deprecating smile and humor. Our prayers are with you Mia, Rowan, Petra and McKay. Big tears are falling.
