Kevin PETERSON

Kevin was the editor of The Gauntlet when I was a student at the then University of Alberta at Calgary. He was a formidable and confident force, an inspiration. I last saw him in the 70's where we had a drink with other friends and my new husband at, of all places, The Cecil Hotel, which horrified my Great Aunt. Even there his confident presence made its mark. Nearly 50 years later I spent my life in the UK but those memories of those early days at UACm to become UofC never go away. My deepest sympathy to his family.

Sheila, am sending my heartfelt sympathies. Kevin was a such a humble person of many talents and accomplishments who inspired me and many others. He made a difference in our lives.

Dear Sheila, we are so sorry for your loss.We have such fabulous memories of Stampede Park sitting outside on the bleachers in the sun, having the odd beer and the odd winner. Your in our prayers and thoughts, Larry Matthews and family

Kevin will be greatly missed by all of us at ATP. He was a light in this community. A leader, a wit, a fan, a thinker and a doer. A man of many passions and qualities. A warm spirit to all. We send you our love. We are sorrowful for this loss.

Sheila,
I was saddened to hear of your loss of Kevin.He was a remarkable man. I will always remember his offer of help to Jim.

So sad to hear of Kevin's passing. We served on Student Council together at U. of C. My thoughts and prayers are with you, Sheila, during this time.

Sheila,

My deepest condolences on the passing of your beloved Kevin. May good memories of your times together sustain you and bring you peace.

I'll never forget the day Kevin introduced himself at a NOVA offsite meeting. He said "I'm Kevin Peterson and every day I thank my lucky stars I'm married to Sheila O'Brien". He was a remarkable man.

Sheila , I knew Kevin long ago in the days of the Gauntlet and I was later friends with Constance. I'm so sorry that he's gone far too soon. He was a lovely man.

Dear Sheila
Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you during this very difficult time.

Deepest sympathy from the Unterschultz family. We had many days of sunshine and laughter in your home and know that Kevin's humour and influence will continue to be great memories of time traveling and time at home.

I have such wonderful memories of working at The Calgary Herald under the leadership of Kevin. He greeted everyone by name with a feeling of genuine friendship. He was a great influence on the leaders of his departments. Kevin was an amazing man. Prayers of comfort are sent to his wife, family and friends.

Dear dear Sheila, Our hearts are so sad to hear this news on your loss of Kevin - please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers, and that we are sending our love to you. Pat & Dave Willis

Kevin always recognized your achievements and offered encouragment. He was an approachable and very likeable gentleman.
He will be fondly remembered. He will be missed.

Sheila, Kevin was one of the colleagues I most admired and enjoyed over my career. His wisdom, humour, leadership and intellectual curiosity will never be forgotten. I pray you are surrounded by love and know you will be comforted by countless memories.

Dear Sheila:

Sheila. Gloria Dalton advised me today of Kevin's passing and it conjured up memories of days writing for The Gauntlet and the interesting times that we had as The University of Alberta, Calgary transitioned to the autonomous University of Calgary some 50 years ago. His support and encouragement enabled me to become the University of Calgary's first Student Senator and I will always remember his mentoring and generous nature.

Sheila you have lost a wonderful husband and partner. His good work will endure. I am greatly saddened at his passing. He was a wonderful guy.

Dear Sheila, I am so sorry to hear of Kevin's passing. He was your partner in so many projects that actually made the world a better place (not the least of which is our wonderful Women's Centre at the University of Calgary). My deepest condolences and warmest wishes are with you.
