"Give rest, O Christ, to your servant, Peter, with your saints, where sorrow and pain are no more, neither sighing, but life everlasting."

I am thankful for having known Peter over many years and will always remember his integrity, helpfulness, faithfulness and joy of life - and, of course, his deep voice and laugh.

Mr. Blake directed the great plays and musicals along with Mrs. Alexander at Parkside in 1964 & 65. He was a mentor with a great sense of humor and cared about the students in his classroom and their extra curriculum activities as well. Thank you and I celebrate a good man's contributions to the many lives he touched.

Mr. Blake was one of the best teachers I ever had, which includes my years at JCC, MSU, Cooley Law School and at Oxford University in Oxford, England. His rich voice and laugh will forever echo in my mind and heart. Heaven has added a great gentleman.

Mr Blake also taught for a short time at Bendle High school where we went to school.

Many years later saw him at the Jackson Meijer where I worked, asked if he was the same Peter Blake, he laughed, said oh yes for a short time right out of college. nice to see him again. Small world.

I remember Mr. Blake`s booming voice in tenth grade speech class at JHS. He was the only teacher that did not need a microphone when he talked!! My condolences are extended to his family
