REMEMBERING PETE DUEL
Thank you to everyone who leaves such poignant and heartfelt expressions in The Memorial Book—and for all your kind words about this site. Your kinship is extremely appreciated. —Laura
Please post your thoughts below. The previous Memorial Book was receiving too much spam, so I had to close it and start this page instead. The previous memorial page also had hundreds of remembrances. I hope to someday transfer them here.
There may be a delay between when you leave your thoughts below and when your post appears, but rest assured, the post will eventually be published. Please keep in mind that many questions still remain about Peter’s state of mind in those final days of his life. One recent question is how much of a role the anti-seizure drug, Dilantin, played on his thoughts. Perhaps Pete was a victim of a pharmaceutical drug and not so much of self-inflicted depression. Also note that Geoffrey Deuel sometimes visited this page. Thank you.
The first time I ever saw Peter Deuel was when I was in high school 33 years ago (headed towards graduation, and onto college), and at home watching reruns of “Gidget”-at this point, I didn’t know that Sally Field did a television show prior to “The Flying Nun”; many months later within the last 33 years in television rerun heaven I would come across “Love on a rooftop” (especially the first episode), and “Alias Smith and Jones” (a movie version before Peter’s passing…I thought his last name was spelled ‘DEVEL’ when the credits from “Gidget” closes out); physically he has a beautiful build (no disrespect, but I don’t like facial hair on ANY man including myself) and smiles reminds me of a friend-turned-musician at the time during my [first year in] college; altogether I always thought that we as pisceans should stick together (Peter was February, I am currently March) because we’re so artistic in many ways and occasionally overlooked despite investments to reach our full[?] maximum possibilities in careers, endeavors, goals, and plans with God’s help because ALL things are possible; Peter Deuel ‘looks’ just like his name (and so does Lisle Wilson, Jeremy Piven, Carl White, Gerard Christopher [now Dinome] and so many others I can think of NOT to stray from the subject); had he lived, I would’ve loved to have dated him without pushing envelopes. 😇🤗☺️
Fue y será siempre mi amor platónico. Un gran actor y un gran ser humano. Su mirada demuestra la nobleza de su corazón. Pete te llevo en mi corazón eternamente. Bendiciones y besos a su hermano y hermana.
Qué fue de la vida de Dianne Ray?
Estoy interesada en adquirir el libro. Qué tengo que hacer para adquirirlo?
He might not have thought a lot of the script, but he would have been perfect as Han Solo, the single best pick for the role.
Oh, you had so much ahead of you…
Too soon, too young mate. Love and much respect
i was 10 when he passed and still remember it well, He was my first screen crush and it was traumatic when that happened. anyhow, its cool to see this many people who remember him, I could’nt wait for Alias smith & jones to come on every week! RIP Mr Duel
