This is such a shock and is so sad. We pray for Peter and all you Provosts, old friends of the Swansons from Wenham. May you be comforted by his such very good work - way beyond the call of duty.

My family and I have deep sympathy for the Provost family. Peter was a profound mentor for me professionally and personally. He was a kind, gentle, and highly effective teacher. His bright smile, quick wit, and contagious laugh made it easy for me and everyone he encountered to quickly consider him a friend. The world needs more people like Peter. He will not be forgotten.

My dearest friends and surrogate family,
My heart is with you through your grief and always. Peter was a great man who above all loved and cherished each of you. He was strong, principled, generous of spirit, industrious and always positive. He was admired and respected by his co- workers here and abroad as a man who relentlessly pursued excellence and always tried his best to do the right thing no matter what the obstacles. He had a quick wit and was always supportive and encouraging, empathetic and kind. He was one of my best friends, together with each of you. I close my eyes and hear his voice.

Pete, God places people in lives at the right time. You came into mine at exactly the right time. It truly was as an impactful season in my life on both a personal and professional level. Thanks seems very inadequate. I know you are in God's hands, be at peace my friend. Hey Pete, as you look down hope you notice my 30lbs weight loss..no marathons though! God Bless you Gail and family.
