We are longtime dear friends of the Quilling Family. We have been closest to Fred and Barbara Quilling and family and certainly knew Peter, especially during his younger mid-life years. We are sending our sincere sympathies to them and Peter's family. We are sorry we did not know about his passing until recently and would very much like to express our love to the Fred Quilling family and Debbie if possible, but it has been difficult to do so. Please contact us if possible - Paul and Linda Ziemer, Waukesha, WI.

Pete babe was the best there was. Remarkable wry sense of humor with a smile for everyone. An instant leader and friend. Will be sorely missed by all of his Latvian volleyball buddies and the Y-Not brew crew. "Think about it." Let's meet at the July 21 memorial evening for Quill.

Pete was such a good soul. Worked with him at the Chazen for years. Always a smile and a good word. Sorry for your loss.

So sorry to hear about "Q". I worked in the Art History department for a lot of years and remember him fondly. He was a friendly, funny and helpful person. Just an all-around great person who will be greatly missed. Strength to you at this grievous time and may your happy memories soothe you.
