Subject: [FOTZeiss] Fw: Peter Anderson
Message-ID: <302301.8134.qm@web113308.mail.gq1.yahoo.com>
I have just learned that Peter Anderson, who worked for Pittsburgh's original Buhl Planetarium in the late 1980s, passed-away in October. He came to Buhl Planetarium to assist with the planning of the new science center building. However, he did work with the Program Department on some of the newer Buhl exhibits, at that time.
At this link is one short obituary:
http://www.exhibitfiles.org/blog/2010/11/17/peter-anderson/
A death notice, with a guest book, follows in the forwarded messaage.

Subject: [FOTZeiss] Fw: Peter Anderson
Message-ID: <302301.8134.qm@web113308.mail.gq1.yahoo.com>
I have just learned that Peter Anderson, who worked for Pittsburgh's original Buhl Planetarium in the late 1980s, passed-away in October. He came to Buhl Planetarium to assist with the planning of the new science center building. However, he did work with the Program Department on some of the newer Buhl exhibits, at that time.
At this link is one short obituary:
http://www.exhibitfiles.org/blog/2010/11/17/peter-anderson/
A death notice, with a guest book, follows in the forwarded messaage.

I have just learned that Peter Anderson, who worked for Pittsburgh's original Buhl Planetarium in the late 1980s, passed-away in October. He came to Buhl Planetarium to assist with the planning of the new science center building. However, he did work with the Program Department on some of the newer Buhl exhibits, at that time.
At this link is one short obituary:

A death notice, with a guest book, follows in the forwarded messaage.

Subject: [FOTZeiss] Fw: Peter Anderson
Message-ID: <302301.8134.qm@web113308.mail.gq1.yahoo.com>
I have just learned that Peter Anderson, who worked for Pittsburgh's original Buhl Planetarium in the late 1980s, passed-away in October. He came to Buhl Planetarium to assist with the planning of the new science center building. However, he did work with the Program Department on some of the newer Buhl exhibits, at that time.
At this link is one short obituary:
http://www.exhibitfiles.org/blog/2010/11/17/peter-anderson/
A death notice, with a guest book, follows in the forwarded messaage.
