I am now living in Florida and did not know about Peter's passing until I read this memorial. He was my lawyer for 30 years and from that relationship we became friends for 30 years, I truly admired him he was a man of integrity and class. When Peter gave that "look" you just knew you better listen to what he had to say and it was never bad advice. A class act through and through. I loved the man.

My name is Anne Castiglione and I knew Peter as a classmate in a small Italian language course. It was a small close knit group that truly enjoyed each other's company. He had a delightful sense of humor and he and I had many heated political discussions as the only two liberals in the group. I just learned of his passing and am extremely saddened. I have missed our class and his company. He was an exceptional person. My thoughts and prayers go out to his friends and family.

Peter was a great example of LIVING life to the fullest. He was a wonderful host at his place in Charlevoix, a great skier and always a fun member of a golf foursome. RIP Peter

I did not even know Peter was sick. This shows you what an unselfish person he was. I am so saddened by the news but feel very fortunate that this beautiful person was in my life for a short time. We talked about plans to go to Eastern Market, cook gourmet foods, and have our dogs play together. Loved our times skiing at Boyne in past winters. He lived life to the fullest. You will be missed.

Peter, your friendship meant so much to me. You were brilliant, generous, and you made a very positive impact on the world around you. I have always admired this and I will miss you tremendously.

Peter,
What a painful loss to your friends and neighbors.
You were a kind, generous giving soul who loved his family so much.
Your death has taught me that it is important to let people know how much they mean to us because death comes too fast.
Your neighbor

I will always remember Peter's generosity. He visited the Detroit Farmer's Market and purchased a very large amount of groceries to deliver to the Capuchin Fathers for their soup kitchen. Their pantry had been almost bare that day until Peter delivered the food. They were most appreciative of Peter's gift. This is just one example of his kindness.

Dear, Dear Kate,
You probably don't remember me, but I do remember you and your Mom and I also remember how hard it is to say "Good Bye" to a parent. Just want you to know my thoughts and prayers are with you and yours during this sad time. Hang on to your good memories.

Peter
Despite the challenges of your own illness & its accompanying pain & discomfort, you always asked how my wife's illness was coming along when we exchanged emails. How considerate and caring. I will remember that. And as others have said you will be missed by the rest of us at the Glenco. My prayers are with your family and friends. God welcomes you into His Kingdom.
August 25, 2012
We will miss you at the Glenco. It will not be the same without you. Your hospitality and friendship opening nite at your lake property will be a memory that I will treasure forever. May you rest in peace my friend.

So sorry to learn about Peter's passing. My family has spent wonderful week long vacations at his place on Lake Charlevoix, of which we have wonderful memories. I never met Peter in person but we spoke on the phone and by email. He shared how much he loved spending time up on Lake Charlevoix and was so happy that my daughters could share his special place. I am sad to learn of his passing and send my prayers to his daughter and her family, of whom he spoke so fondly of. Rhonda Dean

My wife and I were sorry to hear of Peter's passing. We have known Peter for twenty plus years. Peter was never at a loss for words, he would strike up a conversation and always had a story to tell. He was always cordial whether at work or out socially. He will be missed by many. Our thoughts are with his family.
