I had the privilege of meeting Peter a few times over the last twenty years. Every time I was struck the his generous spirit, his endearing personality and his joy for life. A bright light has gone out in the world.

So truly sorry for the loss of an absolute gent. It has been a pleasure working for you PJB. Made me laugh, cry and tear my hair out along the way but always done with decency and grace. I will miss you Mr Butler.
Salt of the earth.
Love to Sue, Antonia, Kurt and the family xx

Peter and all his family have had for several decades a special friendship with our family. He has left an amazing legacy of kindness understanding and generosity of nature which everyone he met felt immediately at ease in his company. My family are blessed to have wonderful memories which over time will replace the pain we feel now. Thank you my friend Peter.

I have been fortunate enough to know Peter and his family pretty much all of my life as my dad's business partner. From the early days of my life having tennis lessons with Antonia when she was a teenager and a bacon sandwich with Gill afterwards to the latter years of playing tennis with Peter every week and going to Wimbledon for the day. Peter was one of life's good guys and will be sorely missed by many. Rest in peace Peter.

Peter was truly one of life's 'greats'. He was a true gentleman, a cheeky chappy and an absolute pleasure to spend time with. I have so many happy memories of time spent at Lascelles Hall and will treasure those times so fondly. I am heartbroken that he was taken far too early from us and he will be missed so much, by so many.
Rest in peace, Peter. I know when I look up you'll be the brightesr star in the sky. Love always xxxx
