I became friends with Peter in 1967 when I was his student.  In addition to being a gifted teacher, he was a terrific mentor to me--impacting my life and giving me direction that still guides me today.  I had lost touch with him many years ago, but tried unsuccessfully to locate him late last summer.  I wanted to tell him that a project he and I worked on in 1968 germinated, grew, and finally came into full fruit last year.  Now he knows.

I imagine he influenced many, many other students in the same way.  He was an excellent person.

Rest in Peace, Pete.

I remember Peter as an active member of    
Cedar County Historical Society in Stockton, Missouri.

Peter was a wonderful friend to our family, befriending us from the very first time that John Peterson attended Friends Meeting of Austin in May, 1981. Peter was kind and caring and a terrific storyteller. We will miss him a LOT,  but will remember him always with gratitude and appreciation. 
  To his beloved and loyal wife, Belia, and to all the family, our deepest and heartfelt condolences. A life well-lived, but still it must be so terribly sad and difficult to say goodbye. May his memory be a blessing forever.

One of my fond memories of Peter is him doing some really corny but hilarious magic tricks at a FMA Christmas party.  We all cheered him on.  My best to Bella and the rest of the family.....holding you in the Light.

Sending love to Belia and Peter's family. Peter was a beautiful soul. His smile and gentle way just lit up a room.

I remember Peter's stories and his embracing of the LGBT community many years ago, when society was quite judging of our brothers and sisters. I remember him enjoying sharing anecdotes and how he liked singing. I remember his appreciation and love of his son, who occasionally joined the Young Friends in activities. Peter had a good attitude toward life, which inspired those around him.
