Peter was an amazing and wonderful man. He was responsible for healing wounds of his clients and the gratitude we feel toward him is enormous. He spoke of his children with such love and respect and they have our sincere sympathy. Rest in peace, Peter.

Peter, you were a truely great man in your quiet unassuming way. The value of your work with support/therapy groups and individual therapy can only be full appreciated by those lucky enough to have experienced your loving professional care. You increased the quality of so many lives. Good-bye my dear friend.

all peter's great parts that couldn't quite be hidden... the true delight in synchronicity, the joy in discovery, the satisfaction in craftsmanship, the divinely inspired associative silliness with words and concepts, all these were the real peter.
