"Peter, in the words of Robert Payne, knew how to fill a room with positive energy. Born in Paris to American parents. Peter was a graduate of Yale and a true believer in liberal arts education. He was perhaps the perfect model of a professor of practice bringing his long professional experience to the classroom. Peter was much loved by students and alumni and his attendance at an alumni event was sure to draw a large enthusiastic crowd. Â He developed courses in branding which were to encourage many students to pursue successful careers in the communications industry. Â This was an essential element in our successful RNCP accreditation which benefits us all.Â
We are exploring an online memorial with Alumni to remember and honour him. He loved a party so we will try to make it a celebration of a life well lived.Â
May he rest in peace."
