It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Reiner Peters, beloved husband, father and grandfather “Opi”. Reiner passed away in Westchester, NY after a long struggle with Parkinson’s and, more recently, an insurmountable fight against the Covid virus. He was 81 years old. We are grateful for the doctors and nurses who were able to make his last days painless and peaceful. We all knew Reiner for his positive outlook, his kindness and his humor. His love for travel and culture carried us to many destinations and experiences around the world. As a father, he loved to inspire curiosity, planning surprise adventures with us when we were growing up. Many of you are familiar with the neurological struggle Reiner faced in his later years. But even as his mobility was compromised, he always maintained his sense of humor and a deep love for those around him; his sons, grandchildren, and especially Hisako, his partner in life for over 55 years. We will all miss him very much.
