Peter Ejarque Obituary
Ejarque graduated from the University of Barcelona medical school with highest honors in 1954. He excelled in anatomy and biochemistry and was awarded a U.S. Senate 'Fullbright' scholarship to come to America for medical research at Harvard and NE Deaconess Hospital.
In 1965 Ejarque came to Rochester, N.H., to join Frisbie Hospital where he became Chairman of the Medical Department. Ejarque's practice was in internal medicine, with specialties in heart disease and diabetes. Upon retiring, Ejarque started The Governor's Inn in Rochester, with two of his sons, in the historic home that housed his practice. Dr. Ejarque especially loved nature, working in the woods, and his family.
Ejarque is survived by his wife Elisabeth Wagemans Ejarque; his sons Peter, Herman, Anthony and Raymond; four grandchildren; his sister Maria Rosa in Spain, her sons Pedro and Dr. Josep Soto Ejarque and their families.
A full article in memory of Dr. Ejarque is soon expected in this newspaper.
In tribute to his passion for education and healing people, a scholarship fund has been setup in Dr. Ejarque's honor to help those who wish to pursue a career in health care. The scholarship will be administered through Rochester Rotary Club Charities, which is accepting donations of any amount at www.RochesterNHrotary.org.

I have fond memories of Dr. Ejarque as I was his last nurse before he retired and worked with him his last day of practice. He often would call me Charlie when calling me from another room vs my name !! His humor !! I enjoyed seeing his wife and boys come by from time to time. In a visit to NH I stopped by The Governors Inn and saw his dream in it's reality. My condolences to the entire family.

Dear Anthony, Herman, and Ejarque family,
I am sorry for your loss. Your father was an amazing man who touched many lives, as well as teaching all of his sons to do the same.

I had the privilege of working with Dr. Ejarque in the mid to late '70's while I was working at Frisbee in Path Lab. What an amazing gentleman and scholar, and a very compassionate doctor. He and his family have done a lot for Rochester and surrounding area, and he will be missed. May God bless his family and close friends and give them peace and joy in all the memories they share of him.
