I wish I had the words to express the appreciation of having you as friend. As I write this I am filled with tears, not of sadness but with gratitude for having had you in my life. I will always remember the many times you would look into my eyes tell me you LOVED me and made sure I heard you.The gifts you gave me of Hiking and Mt.Shasta.

Peter was the fire in one of my closest friend's eye. I was influenced by his positiveness, his being, and his unconditional love. I know that whenever I encountered a troubled persons, I would call Peter for advice...and no matter what was concluded, he always made sure to say," Hey...I LOVE you!" And that was the bottom line. And for this, I will always miss him...he was my go-too...he was my friend...he was my best friend's father. Peter...I LOVE you!

I will remember Peter for the times we shared while bike riding, and the conversations we shared about life and how to live it one day at a time. He would always tell me it was an "inside job". Well my insides right now go out to his family with my deepest sympathy and I will always carry a piece of him in my soul. He was a wonderful man. God Bless.

Peter and I worked with troubled teens back in the late 1980s. His patience and emphathy will be greatly missed. My wife, Beth, was a professional friend, as a medical technologist at Marin General Hospital.
We share grief with all his friends and wish his family the very best.

Although I haven't seen Peter in many years, I'll always remember his warm, friendly style. I was always confident in his work and looked forward to working with him. In "quiet times" we often got to talk. His passing leaves a big empty space. I send my sympathy to Monique, Sean, and Ashley. May you be comforted to know how lucky you were to have such a wonderful husband and father

All of us have known Peter in the same way--a person who has touched our hearts all along the way. Many people know him from the Fellowship where he would share with us. A warm, caring man. We love him and he loves us.

Peter was one of the kindest, biggest hearted men, I've ever known. He was the epitome of true friendship. I hadn't talked to Peter for several years I'm sad to say. He called me out the blue about a week before he died. I took the opportunity to tell him how much he meant to me and our family.
Peter we'll miss you. Monique, you and your family have our sincerest condolences.

The sadness I have from his passing is only due to the kindness and friendship he freely gave. Peter and I were never "great" friends, just good coworkers who always tried to make a difference. From his thoughtful way of pausing before speaking, to the depth of adhearance to his belief of what is right and good for all, I'm glad to have had his company. He will truly be missed by many, yet, I'm sure he has helped many more than we all will ever know. It's hard to be a good man. The tears that came when I read these comments are simply reminders of how great a man he was.

Peter had a major impact on our family. He was a caring friend to my husband, Alex. They climbed Mt. Shasta together at least four times. I didn't worry too much when they climbed because I knew Alex was in good company. I think of Peter as this giant man. A gentle giant. He always was the tallest guy, and he had the bright smile and generous heart to go with his size. Going to the Shakespeare festival with Alex and Monique was such a wonderful time that I will cherish forever. Peter: a great man, spiritual guide, kind and loving soul who will be incredibly missed. Wishing peace and solace for Monique, Ashley and Sean.

I've known Peter since the first day he walked through the laboratory at Kaiser as a prospective employee. My husband knew Peter in high school. I miss him so much, it's hard to put into words. My heart goes out to Monique, Ashley, and Sean.

Peter is truly one of a kind. It's hard to fully describe one of the best men, co-workers and friends. It breaks our hearts to not physically see him again, but his memory will always stay in our hearts and minds forever. Peter, in behalf of San Rafael Laboratory, we are very grateful to have worked with you, thank you for all the laughters you shared through your jokes that sometimes we can't even comprehend,lol, the massages that takes away the stress even just for a minute because you just do it for a second which is not really enough,lol, sorry Peter we're just trying to be funny but our hearts are full of tears. We don't know when we're gonna be ready to move on, this place is so empty without you. We'll always pray for you. We Love You. ------Marvee SRF LAB

I will always remember your kind and quiet way of sharing your great wealth of knowledge like the comical way you describe dealing with "psychobable." I will always appreciate your being there for me. Glad I met you at Kaiser on the night shift 30 years ago.
