Peter and I would meet with friends every Sunday for dinner in Chinatown when we both lived in Montreal.

We shared a lot of great meals and a lot of laughs that still make me smile. 
 
Sadly, those days are long gone but I still cherish them today.

I’m sorry you had to leave us so soon Peter. Rest In Peace and I hope to see you again on the other side.

Dear Peter,

I didn't know which words to choose to say goodbye, but I really don't want to say goodbye, I just want to say thank you. I thank you for the opportunities we had to share, many of which were due to your generosity and love for your siblings, especially for Eliza, thank you for being such an understanding and loving older brother with her, you were always very loved by your two brothers, but she always saw in you that ideal example that every little sister needs to have. An exemplary son and for what I have seen lately, a dear friend and coworker too, nothing less from you. I hope your soul rests in peace with our creator father. We will miss you so much.
                                       R.I.P.

At this exact moment while I am writing, family and friends are gathering in Union City to pay last respects to one of the  warmest and wittiest people ever - Peter Sang Ng.  Manon and I were devastated to hear of his death last week.  We share our deepest sympathies with everyone.

As anyone who knew Peter can attest, he always had time to lend a helping hand to friends and acquaintances.  I have directly benefitted from Peter's generous spirit countless times over the 25 years that we've been friends.  Here's one funny anecdote from when Peter was helping me a few years ago:
-  Late one night in Union City, Peter and I were doing a mock interview in a pizza joint not far from his place.  It must have been way past 10pm on a cold and damp January night.  The restaurant was empty except for the two of us guzzling beer and eating pizza.   And then out of nowhere, an enormous gray rat calmly waddled into the deserted dining area; the rat stood up tall on its hind legs, and it actively sniffed the air.  Without missing a beat, Peter said, "holy smokes JB, your interview skills have become so good now, even the rat wants to hire you!" And I remember saying, "Wait Peter, you're being your usual super-optimistic self, maybe it just came out here because it smelled all the bull!"  We seriously almost wet ourselves laughing for 30 minutes. That memory still makes me laugh but also brings a tear to my eye now.

Peter was ever the consummate networker and I am sure he would be happy to know that his friends and family members are actively planning to get to know each other better and to re-unite very soon in his memory.  In that spirit, I'd also like to share with everyone the information that Hong Yuan (Eric) C and I are in the early stages of planning an entry bursary for undergraduates of one of Peter's alma maters, McGill University.  

Anyone interested in helping to shape and/or participate in this project please don't hesitate to contact me (jbarge72@yahoo.ca). 

Condolences to your family Peter. Thank you for the years of friendship - glad that our paths crossed at ING Direct in Delaware ... so many miles away from where both of us came from. Will all always remember the class-act that you are and will reminisce about the long conversations we've had - from bank strategy, career decisions, moving from city to city, and of course, the trials & tribulations of existential life. You are one of a kind! RIP old friend.

The bond between friends is beyond the mortal world. I can still feel Peter with us, helping us make it through. Peter is by our side forever.

Dear friend,

We met in corporate finance class in 1998. Since then we shared some wonderful moments. We've been teamates in group assignments, we party after class, BBQ in summer time, helped each other moving, burned  our cash in what we then called "investment club"...I still have some of your belongings in my basement...
Time passed so fast! Work, family obligations have kept us a part these last years. Still, I usually laugh recalling your favorite "Rurue him until death" joke!
You and your contagious happiness will be forever missed. But at the same time you'll always be somewhere in my heart.
Your friend Feli

My most sincere condolences to the Sang Family for the passing of Peter the Great! 
A great friend, great mind, and great human. I was fortunate to have met Peter years before the pandemic, to have kept in touch during it, and to actually meet him for beers towards the end of it!! I will miss his sense of humor and his generous and SUPER kind approach to all people. Te extrañaremos, AMIGO!

Peter was always been a smart and humorous person.  You can always find a good laugh when he is around. His kindness and wisdom will always remained in our memories.

My condolences to the Sang Ng family.  We will miss you, Peter. 

Peter was class personified.  He was a kind, authentic and highly intelligent. person with a tremendous sense of humor.  My favorite memories of him include visiting him in Sao Paulo and our field trip to Ipanema and Copacabana beach to enjoy the, 'view".  I will never forget the  his NYC marathon experience  where he was fueled by doughnuts  I will miss you Peter. It has been privilege to have met you.. Rest in peace and continue make bring a smile and laughter in the great beyond.

Peter, thank you for being an amazing mentor and friend. I will always deeply appreciate your advice and words of wisdom, and will dearly miss our conversations about life, food, and family. We will carry on your legacy, Rest in Peace.

A beautiful soul gone too soon. My sincerest condolences to the Sang Ng family. Even though I haven’t spoken to Peter in almost 20 years, his wide smile and contagious laughter always remained unforgettable in my memories. He will truly be missed by all. 

To a cousin who always had a bright smile and a beautiful heart and demeanor.  A very sad loss, but fortunate to have shared fond memories.  Our deepest condolences to the Sang Ng family. 

I never got the chance to know Peter, but was always privileged to hear warm thoughts and memories shared by others. I remember him gracing my family with his kind and loving presence at my father’s funeral. You left this earth too soon, cousin Peter.  ~RIP~

We will miss Peter, he was a dear and trusted colleague. It is clear from the outpouring of messages he was treasured by so many. His memory will live on in all those who knew him.  Our thoughts are with his family during this difficult time. Warm sympathies. 

Peter was far too good of a guy to go so soon.  We met a few years ago both through mutual friends and parallel work, but he was always too interested and enthusiastic to just be another business contact.  He made sure to keep in touch, and would unexpectedly show up at my music gigs, where he insisted on buying the rounds.  Will always be missed, will never be forgotten. 

Our trip to Cuba, which was postponed due to the pandemic, has now become an unfulfilled promise!  Peter, you will be missed dearly.  Because of that one summer short course in Montreal, we have known each other for 30 years!  I'm really glad that our paths had crossed, thanks for always being so sweet & thoughtful!  Goodbye bro, hope we can meet again in the next life!

My deepest condolences to Peter's family.


Peter, it’s been great to have known you as a friend whom shared a common vision. Unfortunately, the time we spent has been short, but we hope you find your final destiny and Rest In Peace. May God help and bless you and your loved ones. ❤️


It is with great shock and sadness that I hear of the passing of Peter. God called home another gentle soul. My deepest condolences to the Sang Ng family. Please  know that my prayers and thoughts are with you. I pray that  God will heal your broken heart and you feel God’s unfailing love during this heartbreaking time. May God give you His peace, comfort, and strength throughout these sad and sorrowful times. Always remember that when life is darkest, God is closest. May the Heavenly Father receive Peter in His loving arms and grant him peace and joy in the eternal love of God. 

My condolences to the Sang Ng family, I’m so sorry for your loss.  I was shocked and saddened to learn of Peter’s sudden passing, he left us much too soon. 

Peter truly was one of the goods ones.  I think many of us in our family have always aspired to be like him - he was smart, funny, hard-working, and had such a kind heart.  He was always so generous and ready to help.  Peter was just genuinely a really good person.

I regret letting work get in the way and not meeting up more often. You will be missed cousin.  Rest in peace. 

Pete, you will always be in our hearts. Rest In Peace your Soul 🍃

My deepest condolences to the Sang Ng family. I met Peter at a business lunch I hosted almost 6 years ago. Throughout our acquaintance since, Peter was always genuine, thoughtful, kind-hearted, and humble about his tremendous intellect and many  accomplishments.  He had a deep well of empathy and knack for putting others at ease. When things were turning upside down, as they often do in our industry, he was quick to share his insights, good humour, and was always willing to open his network to help others.  It was a privilege to know Peter and I am very saddened to learn about his death. He had a light that shone from within. Peter will be missed and remembered. May his soul Rest In Peace. 

Mi primo grande, el primo Peter que se fue primero a estudiar afuera de Santiago, era el primo que siempre queríamos seguirle los pasos; Estudioso, super inteligente e independiente desde joven.
 Tanto tiempo sin vernos y pensar que no nos veremos en vida de nuevo, es casi imposible de creer. Pero Dios te tiene a su lado y es lo que hace mi corazón y mi alma estar mas tranquila al tu irte de esta manera.  Siempre estarás en nuestra memoria.

Tíos: Los amo siempre, mucha fuerza para superar esta perdida tan enorme, Dios los bendiga siempre. 

Peter was a good friend and a kind hearted, jovial buddy. We had met when working in ING and continued staying in touch in New York.  Sweta and me are shocked at the news and will miss him dearly. We will always remember our brunches and fun conversations. We will miss our close friend and may his soul Rest In Peace. 

Today, I farewell my lifetime best friend, Peter Sang. We begin our friendship since 1991 and every single moment that we spent together can only be described with one word “Joy”. Although you have left me, you have bought to me a lot of beautiful memories which I will never forget and they will stay with me forever. You can’t imagine how much you mean to me and you were the one who hold my hand and walked me into my wedding ceremony. This is not the end of our friendship as it is eternal and I look forward to our reunion. I ❤️ U and missed you much ❤️

Peter,  when I first hear that you passed away, I didn't think it was true. You are always positive and smiling, no trouble would bother you. I remember the days when we were roommates in Montréal, you helped me a lot which I would never forget.  Rest in peace and may God be with you.

Words cannot describe the disbelief I felt when I heard about Peter’s passing.   I met Peter at SIPA, such a gentle soul, always willing to lend a hand, always willing to listen.  I remember being on career panels with him, I remember meeting up in midtown for lunch when our offices were close.  Miss you.  Rest In Peace, Peter! 

Dear Peter,

I'm sure that there are so many people like me that are feeling a mix of sadness and anger. I'm mad at myself because we lived 10 minutes from each other and yet I let work and life routine to take over. I should have called you and texted you more often. Should have enjoyed more road trips, dinners and great conversations with you. All my family and my friends from Brazil who had the chance to meet you remember you as the kind, generous friend with a great sense of humour. 
 I hope your family find comfort knowing that you were such an amazing person who touched the lives of so many.
You'll be so missed....you left too early my friend.

Peter was a close friend to my family and will be deeply missed.  We met just a few times , always christmas times and he was always so nice. It is still shocking to know he passed. I hope time will give comfort to your family. With deepest sympathy. LiliaWang  and Julio Vassao

I remember Peter fondly. During the age of university, we often hung out together with a group of friends.  We were young with full of spirit and plenty of aspiration. We shared lot of joy and laughed a lot together.  That was our golden age and I vividly recalled those moments. After university, we all went to our path to pursue our dream. Time flies, the last time I saw Peter was decade ago. I surely miss his wisdom, sense of humor and generosity.  Peter, you left too early and too soon! 

ME, como solías llamarme se queda sola hasta que nos volvamos a reunir. Me enseñaste a tener sentido del humor. Nos reuníamos con Susana y Su-Lieng a hacer chistes cada vez que regresabas en diciembre a Santiago. Aprendimos uno del otro sin darnos cuenta. Sólo extraña el que se queda. Te extrañaré. 

Peter, you will be greatly missed. You were a good friend to my brother and his family. I only knew you briefly but you were always nice and so, so generous. I am truly saddened by your sudden passing. I am sure you will forever be remembered fondly by everyone whose life you touched in the too short time you were here. 

Such a friendly, gentle soul…
I had the pleasure and privilege to spend a month with Peter in Noordwijk, during the ING International Graduate Program. We had great fun together, whilst managing to get some work done.
Years Later we caught up in Amsterdam and it was as if we had Deen each other the week before.
Thank you for your warm pressence and your unique ability to connect with anyone, anywhere.

Peter and I both worked in emerging markets. I appreciated his open mind and collaborative spirit, enjoyed seeing him at many industry events, Columbia alumni events, and at the CFA Society of NY. COVID has increased the distance between many of us, and I will miss Peter as we all enjoy reconnecting with one another. My deepest condolences to his family. -htm

I am so very sorry to hear that Peter is no longer with us in physical form.  We met at the ING International Graduate Program in Amsterdam in 2006 where we spent a month together with 100+ other young professionals from across the world. Our paths would cross again in Brussels, Wilmington, and NYC on brief trips where we had a chance to reconnect. I have always regretted that we didn’t connect  when he last visited Toronto. I always appreciated Peter’s sincerity, humility, intelligence and sense of humour. While we had not connected in some years, I thought of him with kind sentiments and was looking forward to tell him a couple of things when we connected next. My sincerest condolences to the Sang family….your Peter was so well regarded by so many and will be missed. 

You are not supposed to leave us behind like that Peter!!  You are forever the fun and smart Peter I met when we were still in school.  The fond memories of you, your smile, your kindness, your words will remain.  
In my heart forever.   Rest in peace.  

Thank you Peter for being so helpful & supportive during the time when I first landed in Montreal to study.  Thank you for letting me staying with my brother and you looked for your own place.  I would never forget you being so helpful, supportive and your sense of humor!

May you be Rest In Peace, Peter! 

Te extrañé…. Te extraño y te extrañaré. 
Gracias por las ayudas y la buena compañía que me diste. Siempre estarás en mi mente.
Que descanses querido mío. 

Very sorry for your loss.  May Peter's family and friends no longer know any sorrow.  Peter was truly one of a kind.  Will sorely miss my dear friend.  


I met Peter when I was in my first semester of University at McGill. I was in the classroom for our Statistics class and I was so nervous as I did not know anyone and I was a freshman.  Peter was standing across the room and he came over, introduced himself and started talking to me right away. He was so calming and polite. He made me feel much more comfortable. From that day on wards, we became good friends. He is truly the nicest, most kind person you could ever want to meet.  May he rest in peace. I am going to miss him very much.  

RIP up there Peter. So sad to hear of this sudden news. Will forever cherish all the times we've shared. Your help and concern for others will never be forgotten.
