As his former teacher at Oberursel Gymnasium I regret deeply the sad news. Peter was an open minded chap, always reliable and very much estimated and loved by his friends. Up to thé présent hé kept contact with bis former class-mates.

I remember talking with him about his love for heavy metal and his trips to a popular music festival called Wacken. Peter was always friendly and down-to-earth. Rock on, brother!

I just read the news in the newsletter of the German-American Society in El Cajon and was shocked. He was one of the nicest and humorous members that I have known at GAS. We celebrated Karneval with him when I was Karneval Princess more than 20 years ago. What a shame, what a loss. You will be missed but not forgotten.
