Dear George and family:
My condolences on the death of your family. I didn't know him well but had the chance to meet him at several Russian Easter gatherings. Now I know where George got much of his passion for life, family, and the world in general. I always come away better educated about local and national politics, education, and horses after our conversations while you trimmed my horses. May your Dad rest in peace.

Helen, Peter and George: Kate and I are so sorry for your loss. Peter was a remarkable person. I am indebted to him for my career at CSC - as you know, he hired me as a Resident Astronomer for IUE in 1977 and was my boss at CSC for 20 years until he retired in 1997. He was a wise manager who expertly guided a number of astronomical projects, including not only IUE and Hubble but also the Astro project in which a CSC astronomer flew as a Payload Specialist astronaut on two Space Shuttle missions in the 1990s.
Peter was a great manager and very good at team building and encouraging the career development of his employees and making sure they had opportunities for professional advancement.
I will always fondly remember the collegial brown-bag lunches that Peter held with his staff every workday at the GreenTec office. You could always count on him for interesting conversation and news of his farm, home and family as well as work-related topics. He was a person you were proud to count as a friend as well as a manager and will be sorely missed by all who knew him. May he rest in peace and your memories of him be a comfort to you.
