Memories and Condolences
for Peter Bornstein

I just learned of Peter's death - Amy and Sage, I don't know if you will see this. My three brothers and I grew up with the three Bornstein boys in North Haven and New Haven. We spent summer weeks at the Bornstein farmhouse in RI. Hal was our physician. Toby and my mother, Rita, were close lifelong friends. Peter even lived with us for a little while. We got into plenty of mischief when we were teens together - he was an extremely intelligent and inventive fellow. The last time I saw Peter was at the Metropolitan 20 years ago or so, when he was restoring there - we hung out in his work studio. Shocking to learn of this death - too young. So glad to see how much he was loved and to know that he had a family to which he was devoted. I have a few old pics of him somewhere - will try to find them. Sending my condolences and best wishes.

This was so unexpected. I knew Peter when we were both high school students. I feel for you and Sage and how difficult this time must be for both of you. Peter was a very kind and sensitive man. Obviously he was intelligent, he married you and I'm sure much of the best of him continues with Sage.

Amy & Sage. My hear goes out to you with what you must be going through, especially with such a sudden loss.
I know Peter from high school, reconnecting through Patricia and 9/11. He was a truly kind and gracious gentleman and his loss will be felt by all whom he touched, but by no one greater than the two of you.
