Peter and I worked together in the early 1980's in Victoria at Monday Magazine. We became friends and stormed around town in his sports car as young men do. He was passionate about everything he did, and made the most of every opportunity which presented itself. I'm saddened by his loss, and hope he'll be remembered by those whose lives he touched. I'm sure some of us may feel the attached photo here is disrespectful, but we had fun as young people, and it's important, at least to me, to remember that.

Sincere condolences to the MacGillivray family.  Peter was a force to be reckoned with.
He and I had many years of good times and adventures and he was always ready for more. So sorry to hear he has died at such a young age.  

I have a memory of Perter, that I want to share.  11 years ago, I had a medical emergency, I was living in Playa Tambor, Costa Rica.  I had to be flown out by helicopter, because it was December 31st, and all the ferries had stopped running.

Strangely enough, Peter had phoned me two days earlier to tell me he had just arrived in Costa Rica. I had his number, so I called him, and he met me at the helipad. 

When I was released, Maria and I lived with Peter for 3 weeks. He looked after me and entertained Maria.

We continued to see each other on a regular basis, until he moved back to Asia.

I had not seen him for about 15 years, so it was a bit of a miracle l that he was there to help me in my time of need.

I have fond memories of Perter. We were close since I was about 10 years old. Shawnigan Lake, Victoria and in the end Costa Rica.

Eileen and Alan, I'm sorry for your loss. I will remember Peter as my Angel. Warm regards, Jo-Anne and Maria Watt.
