Bill was an incredibly gifted and kind man.

I had the pleasure to work with him at St Luke´s on the IRB and talking to him about patients we both had.

He will be missed my thoughts and prayers (if accepted) to his family.

To the family and friends of the wonderful Dr. Peters:

Please accept my deepest condolences on the loss of such a wonderful man. There are no words of solace that I may offer for such a heavy loss. I've known Dr. Peters since I began working evenings for St. Luke's Quakertown Radiology as a technologist in 2011. He was always making me laugh with his witty sarcastic sense of humor and true caring nature. He was always one of my favorite Rads. If given a choice of reading room Rads, if he was available, I would always choose to speak to him.

When my brother was diagnosed with a very aggressive cancer in 2019 he was so kind and present throughout the ordeal. My brother passed away within 5 weeks of his diagnosis unfortunately. I will never forget the sympathy and sincerity of Dr. Peters (and other wonderful Rads) during that very difficult time. I am truly heartbroken to learn of his sudden passing away. I am sending all of my love and prayers to his family and friends. He was truly one of a kind with a heart of gold. He will be deeply missed and always remembered!

Jenn,

Words can't even begin to express the sorrow and pain for your loss. There is an emptiness that can never be filled. Bill was not just a colleague, but my best friend. He was the brother I never had.

When I met Bill, he was a medical student rotating through UMDNJ, I knew he was something special. Over the past 30 years, he became an amazing physician, husband and dear friend. He ALWAYS put others needs before his own.

Bill will truly be missed not just by his family and friends, but by all the patients he had cared for.

Rest in peace my Brotha'

I´ll always remember my "Uncle Bill" as someone who was more than just a friend, but family. He was a constant source of support and encouragement. No matter the moment, he was there, always rooting for you to be your best. He wasn´t just my dad´s best friend, but the kind of "uncle" who made you feel truly lucky to have him. And I´ll never forget those sweet potatoes, bigger than any football I´ve ever seen! Anytime NPR comes on, I promise I´ll try to listen now. Uncle Bill, thank you for being there, for being such a great friend to my dad, and for always being my favorite "uncle." You will always be remembered and loved.

Jen and family-
I´ll never forget my trip to Chestertown last summer - spending time with Bill in his happy place was so much fun. I loved seeing him so relaxed and content - showing me the magnolia trees he grew, the sheep and chickens, putting out the kayaks for us and videotaping our shenanigans in the Chester River. I´ll miss his sarcasm and quick wit and his adoring love for Jen. Holding you close in our heart.
