  1. Peter taught us to believe in ourselves and always help our fellow man. Because of Peter the world is a better place by the examples he showed towards others.

  2. I used to support the NDP. My two daughters worked on the St Catharines campaign the year the Orange tide swept over Ontario. Bob Rae was a huge disappointment for this union member eventually i drifted to the Green Party. Peter Kormos was like a breath of fresh air on the political landscape and shook those fuddy duddy’s up, he was not constrained by the stuffy rules of the game, he still had lot’s to give. He died too young. My prayers go to his family and there will be a special place for Peter when he meets the other Peter upstairs.

    While I am conflicted with his political alliances, he was a person that showed independance in his thoughts and actions. A character trait that is unfortunately not common in this day of political bullshit. This is regretful.
    Sadly just sayin……

  4. I remember Peter from my days at Brock. He was politically active there as well. Became student council president after impeaching Vian Andrews if I remember correctly. Funny what comes to mind from 40+ years ago. Sad to lose Peter so young.
