Peter S. Boese

Dear Amy and Family,
I remember meeting you years ago when we both took on our schools on behalf of our sons. And then I had the opportunity, years later, to meet Peter and have him as a student in my (art) classroom at Oneida. He was a wonderful young man, and with the people he touched during his lifetime, his memory and life will be celebrated for years and years to come. It was a privilege to have known him.

My daughter came home and told me about Peter's passing, with tears in her eyes. He made an impression on her, and must have been a wonderful young man. I'm sorry that he was taken from you so early, and I pray that you will find comfort knowing that he is no longer in pain. The world will be that much less without him, his smile, and his music.

Dear Amy and Ben,
So sorry for your loss. Peter's music was wonderful and his spirit will live on!

to Peter's family, I remember praying for Peter at St. Vincent's church when he was an infant and had his first surgery. I remember seeing Peter as a young child and how moving it always was to see the love between him and his family members. I extend my deepest sympathy to you at this time. Thank you for allowing the TU to bless us all with Peter's beautiful music. May all that he was, all that he leaves and all that you did for him bring you peace and comfort you.

I am sorry to hear about your family's loss.I remember attending school with Peter all throughout Elementary school at Paige.He was a great person and will always be remembered.My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in this difficult time. God Bless.

Peter was blessed to have you all and you all were blessed to have him. I work with 'special needs children' and I consider it a blessing to be a part of their lives. Remember him and the blessings of love will remain with you always. I will miss seeing Peter at the Paige Elementary Concerts. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

With Sympathy,
The Ramirez Family

I only got to meet Peter a couple of times but I could tell how much you loved him and cared for him. My deepest condolences go out to you and your family. I could tell Peter lived a great life and had so much support from his family.

To the family of Peter...
I am sincerely sorry for your loss. I am a senior at Schenectady High School and I remember seeing Peter in the hallways and always heard amazing things about him. He had so much talent and many challenges he overcame. My prayers and thoughts are with you at this time...

God bless your beautiful boy.

Dear Peter,
You introduced us to Shakespeare and Bob Marley. You took us on adventures to the Grand Canyon of the East, and to Syracuse's ice skating rink. Here or there, we sat side by side during some scary times. Knowing you Peter has made us stronger in many ways. We give thanks for it all, staying close these nine years. The photos may dull, our memory may get fuzzy but your friendship will not fade. Look at Ben, Sam and Adam, and the love they hold for you - tells me that you will always be with us. In Friendship.
Love,
Susan, Bill, Faith, Graham and Libby

Cathy & Steven -
We were sorry to hear of Peter's passing. We remember how much he enjoyed his walks in the neighborhood. When Cathy had him class, he SOOO loved it when we did music ! His life was better for having you and his brothers as a big part of it. And your lives were better for having him in it as well. It's been a generous trade in all directions. Have patience with missing him.

Dear Stephen, Cathy and the best brothers.

We are so sorry for the lost of a very fantastic man that touch our hearts and lives. We loved him and we love you and hope that this will find you peace. Love Uncle Dennie, Aunte M, Jamie and Gavin keep in touch....

To the Boese Family:
I was so sorry to hear of the loss of your loved one. As I read this obituary, my thoughts referred to 2Corinthians 1:3,4 where the God of comfort, comforts us all. Your loved one left behind lots of memories and may those memories be of comfort also.

Dear Amy,
It has been such a privilege to know you, Peter and his brothers. You have brought so much love and inspiration to St. Stephen's. Our congregation is richer for having you with us. I'll never forget the time, at coffee hour, when you were showing us how Peter communicated. I was acknowledging him for his gifts, and his music compositions, and he chimed in "I'm humble too!" He cracked us all up. I've never forgotten that moment and have shared it with many. You are an amazing model of strength and beauty and courage - as was Peter. Bless you, all, always.
Barbara

To the parents and family of this young man. I was blessed just by reading about your son's life in the obituary. I pray that God sends to you the peace that passes all understanding. God will keep you in perfect peace if you keep your mind on Him. God bless you.

To the family of Peter,
Last summer i spent alot of time with peter and he truly impacted my life forever. Peter was a very happy young man that achieved so many goals in such a short time, some goals that some dont reach in a lifetime. I consider myself very lucky to have gotten the opportunity to meet peter and it is very painful to see his face on the obituary. I enjoyed helping peter learn to play tennis and swimming with him and going to the library or on the computer. I will remember the short time we shared together for the rest of my life. My sincere and deepest regards to amy, peters dad and peters stepmom and grandparents, brothers sam, adam and ben and everyone who ever met him. This will be a long healing process but just remember how special peter was and will always be.

Dear Peter,
Thank you for being my friend, my buddy.
Love you always,
Libby

Stephen,Cathy and Boys
No greater gift could we have received than to have Known and Loved Peter.We truly believe the Lord has larger plans for him. Love to you all.

To family and friends of Peter:
We were so unhappy to hear of Peter's passing. It is always a very sad time when the Lord takes a person so young, especially a person of Peter's capacity to love and to live life to his best. We hope you are at peace at this time and go on in life remembering Peter for the wonderful young man that he was. Our love and thoughts are with you all.
Sincerely

To Peter's Family and Friends,
Although we did not know Peter, I felt compelled to write. Peter's testament of his life was truly amazing. He accomplished more in his young life than people do in an entire life. We are so sorry for your loss. Please know that we will pray that God will give you comfort at this horrific time. Hold Peter's memories close to your heart and he will live on in your hearts forever. We are truly sorry for all that you are going through.

Amy,
My heart and prayers go out to you and your family. I know you were a very devoted mother to Peter and you should take great pride in that. I know this is the most difficult thing you have had to deal with in your life. Your life is forever changed and you will miss him forever. I pray that you when you come through the other end of your grief, you will be a stronger person and you will realize that Peter is now in a better place. God bless you and your family.
