  22. Happy birthday Peter, RIP Green Man. My heart aches that you left us so soon. You still had so much amazing music to share and many happy events to come your way. May you have peace and love where you are now.

  27. Pete, how dare you depart so quickly after allowing Mary to take such handsome photos of you! The noive...

    ...but seriously, it's said that departed souls can hear it when the living think of them. Pete must be getting quite an earful.

  28. A gothic birthday in heaven … very true … and a very special one with being the 50th! Mary Wolfe – love the pics – TY for sharing your creativity ;-) Many things came into my mind that day: how was this day for Pete’s parents / sisters … what kind of weather was it on 4.1.62 .. what kind of personal memories may be connected with this day … I was wearing Pete‘s memorial shirt for the first time (which I luckily received just one week before) – I thought it was the perfect day for it. It was interesting to see people’s reactions – I could see that everyone really had to look at this shirt when we were at the cinema in the evening with some nieces/nephews. One niece‘s (20 yo) first reaction:‘Where do you have this cool shirt from / who is this man?‘ Well, it was a pleasure for me to inform her ‚that shirt is from NY‘ (her reaction: ‚WoW – so cool – one day we really have to go to NY together‘) and introducing her to Peter’s life & art. Later in the evening I lighted two candles (Alpha/Omega), listening to some of my most favourite TON songs and again I was blown away by that brilliance & I was just grateful for this music. My thoughts were with you – the family - & how much I wished that Pete would be here to celebrate his half century. Personally I celebrated Pete‘s life on this special day with love, gratitude, a good portion of humor, a fantastic lunch (home made lasagna) with family members and an evening in the cinema with a lot of laughter – maybe a day like Peter would have also enjoyed it. I think solace can be found in life itself as it has been stated so true in an earlier blog post (5/2/11) by Pete’s niece Tara:‘ He is missed but had lived a life only some of us could only dream of. ‘ Peter, forever loved & missed & never forgotten!
    Much love & respect

  29. My kids and I are still laughing over the Chickety China da Chinese Chicken! Do they serve that at KFC?

  30. I am happy that I stumbled across this blog, what a lovely story to share! It is good to know that not just the music was good, but so was the person behind it. It is sad to know that there will never be another epic song like September Sun or amazing remix like the Hedwig and the Angry Inch theme! Thank you to the family and friends for sharing some of the real experiences with Peter! <3

  31. Rose from NY now in CA12:19 AM, March 22, 2012

    I Never got chance to say how much I miss this man on this another year of his birth. You are spending your birthdays in Heaven with the Angels now Peter. Always remember we the fans will never forget you and what you did for us. I light a few candles each morning for the dearly departed in my personal life and I've now included Petrus in that moment. I honor your memory daily. Miss you so. Live how you want to be remembered. We only remember the good, always the good in you. Much respect and Love to you and your family. Rose

  32. A girl and a guy loomed about existing just short of peculiar
    Tortured endlessly biding among space and time
    Longing for another to disseminate with about nothing in particular
    Self-medicating keeping afloat of doom and dread
    Society churning upon them emotions completely suppressed
    Chances they knocked heads was extremely spectacular
    Love so strong interconnecting a valid bond paradoxically expressed
    Their souls donned an internal emblem of eternal fire
    A 15th century bond considerably molecular
    Capricorn garnet green, circle of 13, Aries bloodstone red, innocence is dead
    Highly promulgated was their twisted lascivious desire
    To once again be united sublime
    Betwixt Slow death - Purgatory, cross me over
    Prince of Rigel, left-handed born attracting negative things in life, the foot that crushes
    Princess of Betelgeuse right shoulder of strength, blood sacrifice
    Plasm 143: 11/13/21/24/26/48, I love you Peter Thomas, I love you Laura Marie…unconditionally
    Funny to agree that the mere will never understand true love’s spell, just as well…
    The bridge, the forest, the path - the light
    Winter Solstice leaves crunching brittle
    Worn-out leather, jeans and matches
    Spring Equinox flowers budding fragile
    Lilacs, azaleas & roses…
    Green Man, Bender, Girl Brooklyn Boy, Pearl River Girl
    Once again forever take my hand…we are soulmates, lovers and friends…
    Walking together fine lines of wondrous frail, magnitudes of redemption of unremarkable scale
    For we are so gracefully memorized, God help him be canonized…
    At the mercy of our Lord’s great peace, be at peace, the Lord said unto thee: “Give him peace”, Amen
    Stop sniveling; for Peter is not dead, he is finally at peace…
