Last time I spoke to Peter I said " I start my presentations by saying my fist couple of weeks at Retreat Peter was on zoom in March 2020 giving gift cards to employees who were showing up during the pandemic for work " Afraid I would lose my Job but no one did. He also took pts positive COVid when no places would. I received 2 texts today from past pts that had reached 2yr and 1yr today.❤️💔❤️💔🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 I'm beyond sad but grateful I knew him He is ascending with much love from the many souls that he touched. #RETREATERS

Will miss you ! Rest in Peace Brother .

So sorry to hear about Peter passing. I worked for him in business development for 4 1/2 years. He was very kind and supportive and always treated me with dignity and respect. A keen mind who created a great work culture and helped many who struggled with addictions. God bless Peter and his family and friends. He will be missed by the recovery community.

I began my HR career at Retreat Behavioral Health, where they took a chance on me as a recent graduate with minimal experience. They invested in me and helped me grow into the HR professional I am today. Peter was a great man who began an incredible legacy. My condolences to Peter’s family and to my Retreat family. Retreat will always hold a special place in my heart as my first “home.” 🤍 Rest easy, Peter.

What a shock. Great man, great vision. Retreat was a real departure from what was available to people looking for treatment in the early 2000’s. Great staff, easy access, good relationships with insurance carriers, allowed many to get the help they needed. Also provided some fantastic IOP following treatment. He will be missed.

Peter’s commitment to uplifting others and their positive impact on our community will never be forgotten. My thoughts and prayers are with my Retreat family and friends during this difficult time. May we all find comfort in knowing how profoundly Peter influenced the lives of so many and continue his legacy. 💔

The amount of people that Peter helped and was loved by is insurmountable. He invested in PEOPLE and never strayed away from having a true human conversation regardless of what the topic was. Surely will be sorely missed by many. Love you Peter and everything you have done for not only my family, but the demographic that we serve. My condolences to his family, which was many RIP brother #retreaters
