                                                                                                                                                                                               Mrs. Deborah A. Estes and the Joan Carol (Johnson) Peter Family, 

      On behalf of Mr. Eugene C. Rainis, Chair, and of all the members of our Board of Trustees and of everyone associated with the Gregorian University Foundation, please accept our sympathy on the occasion of Joan's death.  We know that she had a full and very productive life and for some time had not enjoyed good health.  However, it is never easy to lose one's mother, grandmother, great grandmother or dear relative or friend, who was particularly close to all those who loved her.  May God give Joan full participation in eternal life and console and comfort all her loved ones.   

     Joan was in every sense her late husband Jim's partner and so like him demonstrated an exceptional and charitable concern for others and their well-being.  They and the Peter family as well as Jim's brother, Msgr. Val Peter, have been truly major benefactors of the Gregorian University Foundation, for they established both the Rev. Carl J. Peter Chair for Interreligious Dialogue at the Pontifical Gregorian University and the Peter Family Scholarship Fund.  Their cousin, Charles A., Peter, M.D., presently serves very generously on our Board of Trustees.

     Joan's and Jim's support of Catholic education and of recovery programs has been and continues to be a real contribution to the Church and others in Los Angeles and elsewhere.  However, most importantly Joan was a woman of deep faith and demonstrated this in everything she did, particularly, in her parish.
 
     I will be celebrating five Masses for Joan and keeping her in my prayers; she may not need the prayers, but they might well be of assistance to her dear ones.        

     Again, please accept our sympathy and prayers for Joan.  May she and all the faithful departed rest in peace, and may the Lord also hold each of you gently in the palm of his hand as you move through the grieving process and bless you and everything that each of you does.   

Affectionately, with our sympathy and prayers, in Him,  
Robert F. O'Toole, S.J., S.S.D
President
Gregorian University Foundation

Joan Peter was a wonderful asset to Dr James Peter her husband and the founder of Specialty Laboratory and my employer for many wonderful years. I know how difficult it is to lose your mother and my heart goes out to the Peter family.

Much love to all of you.  There is something most difficult about losing your mother.  Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.  I pray you will find comfort in good memories.

Joan was a class act with a terrific sense of humor and an excellent complement to her hubby Jim. Rest in Peace.
