He never played for "Sheep Stations". If you won, he would say "Well Played" and if he won, he was always humble. A lovely man and one of the many reasons that I drive 2 1/2 hours to the Club. I will miss him very much. <br />Paul FreemanDuke of 1815https://www.blogger.com/profile/09165778020157413934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652852907403338532.post-36460686812232741302014-10-14T12:33:14.817+11:002014-10-14T12:33:14.817+11:00An annual, commemorative competition sounds like a...An annual, commemorative competition sounds like a marvellous idea. It will be an emotional weekend in January, I'm sure. You'll have to have his favourite stool at the end of the shed (I presume that was common to several of your games and not merely last year?). At least it will be an opportunity to recall shared, fond memories at length—laugh, smile and remember the man.James Fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17897755636246185173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652852907403338532.post-90290305858374638672014-10-13T09:29:49.272+11:002014-10-13T09:29:49.272+11:00Thanks for all the good wishes, chaps.

I'll be sure to pass on the condolences of the International Brotherhood of Wargamers to Pete's wife and family.<br /><br />James, it's going to be tough going to next year's January game without him! I'm sure he'll be in everyone's thoughts. There's talk of having a big(-ish) annual game at the club annually in October where two teams battle it out for the honour of winning the Pete Ed. Memorial Cup. A fitting way to keep his memory alive, I reckonBen Gilmourhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09548280904041987733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652852907403338532.post-63406271033215947962014-10-12T22:09:32.904+11:002014-10-12T22:09:32.904+11:00Sad news, sounds as if you have some great gaming ...Sad news, sounds as if you have some great gaming memories!

I feel honoured that I was able to meet Peter, all the more so since it was at the NWA's annual wargaming weekend and for such a momentous occasion as your marvellous Borodino refight. I enjoyed his wit, his stories and the fine manner in which he played the game—a true gentleman, as you say. I shall treasure those memories all the more.<br /><br />Please pass on my condolences to his family and to his many friends at the NWA.James Fisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17897755636246185173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652852907403338532.post-73632740707211704582014-10-12T00:23:42.249+11:002014-10-12T00:23:42.249+11:00How sad - rolling dice with Don Featherstone and P...How sad - rolling dice with Don Featherstone and Peter Gilder now in Wargaming Valhalla ? , TonyThe Good Soldier Svjekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08749564052124659180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5652852907403338532.post-32672922138788432702014-10-12T00:01:35.115+11:002014-10-12T00:01:35.115+11:00May perpetual light shine upon him and may he know...May perpetual light shine upon him and may he know peace.
