Peter WAGNER Obituary

Deepest sympathy to Peter´s family. I only just found out about Peters passing
I´ve only known Peter through his trip with us on our Melbourne Cup tours. We take big numbers each year to the Cup and we all become pretty well connected throughout the racing carnival. Peter will always be remembered for his passion for the thoroughbred and I know he got a real buzz when I told him the tour was going to make a visit to the new Te Akau stables in Cranbourne because of his connection with his star, Pris de Fer who they train. It was a pleasure knowing you for the short time Peter and the reminiscing of great gallopers we shared on the odd occasion and I´m sure that is endorsed by all our wonderful tour groups these past couple of years who you´ve been a real part of.
God bless

So sad to hear of Peter´s passing. Many memories over the years in the dental technology industry.
Rest Easy Peter

Such a great loss and heartfelt condolences to Peter's family. I first met Peter over 25 years ago when I was working for my Grandfather & throughout the years it was always good seeing him on regular visits & at our conferences. A stalwart of the dental industry, you will be missed by many.

My deepest condolences to Peter´s family. I have known Peter since 2012 and have looked after him as a financial adviser. I always enjoyed my chats with Peter over the years, he really was a kind and thoughtful man and always a pleasure to assist. Rest in peace Peter.

My heart felt condolences to Peters family.
I have known Pete since I was a lad starting at CIT to train as a technician. He was a true icon of the NZ dental industry and just never seemed to age. I will miss his visits to my work, the friendly smile and signature laugh.
Rest in peace Peter.
Tony Allbon

Our sincere condolences to Peter's family. We were very sorry to learn of his passing. We would often run into him at the reserve near our home, where we walked and chatted. He will be missed by many.

Very saddened by the news! Deepest condolences to Peter's family and friends. Peter was a genuine and kind person who was always willing to help others. Will miss our chats at the NZIDT conferences! Rest in peace, Peter.

So sorry to hear of Peter's passing. I worked with Peter at Shalfoon Dental, and have crossed paths over the last 20 years on many an occasion. Sending love to his family at this sad time.

I just found out today about Pete´s passing through an old mutual friend, Ludy. We were junior members together at Remuera Golf Club when we were about 16. Although we lost touch over the years I still remember his passion for horses and then rugby in that order. We spent many a late night at his father´s Meadowbank home watching the ABs play the Boks. There was a group of about 6 of us young lads. Great days and a very genuine human being. Very sad but wonderful memories. My sincere condolences to Peter´s family. Ash Bellam.

Dear Jacquie - deepest sympathies to you and the family for the loss of your brother, Peter. I worked with Peter at Shalfoon Dental many moons ago, and many of us have kept in touch over the 25+ years. I have very fond memories of Peter, he was quite the character, especially after a few beers! I loved that he went all out at our parties, truly letting his hair down (excuse the pun). Attaching a great photo of one of the many parties we had where he and I rented costumes for a 70s party... I can remember him coming out the dressing room in the pink outfit and I was literally on the floor laughing saying "yes, that's the one"!!! And then of course his surprise 40th birthday in the Shalfoon showroom where we hung photos of him as a boy and decorated his car. Many happy memories. Sorry I can't be with you on Sunday but I will have a wee tipple for my old mate.

Pete, it has been an absolute privilege to have known you over the past six years. Prise de Fer was my first racehorse syndicate and has brought me together with so many wonderful people and experiences. Your passion for racing had an infectious quality that drew us in to many adventures and racetracks around the country. Your enthusiasm and the pleasure you got from the horses is undeniable. It is only fitting that Sabre retires this weekend. Go well my friend. Thanks for the memories and friendship.

Our deepest condolences. We are absolutely devastated. Having just learned Peter was opting out of his work life to take on new endeavors. We will miss him and his support throughout the years. He was an awesome person and will always be remembered. Our thoughts are with his friends and family. With deepest sympathy Iris & Thomas Hirsch

My sincere condolences to Peter's family. It is devastating news. Peter has such an outstanding personality that will be missed by many. It was a blessing to know him, work with him and learn from him. Good memories will stay with us. R.I.P Peter

To Peters family,
I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Peter Wagner. Please accept my heartfelt condolences during this difficult time.

Peter's presence in the dental industry for the nearly four decades I have known him was not just professional but also deeply personal to many of us who had the privilege of knowing him. His dedication, expertise, and warmth made him a beloved figure among colleagues and friends alike.

I will always cherish the memories of our time together in the dental community, and I am grateful for the wisdom and camaraderie Peter shared with me over the years. His legacy will undoubtedly endure in the lives he touched and the contributions he made to our profession.

Please know that my thoughts are with all Peter's loved ones as you all navigate through this loss. May you find comfort in the cherished memories you shared and the enduring impact he had on so many.

With deepest sympathy,

Sincere condolences to Peter´s family!! May his soul rest in peace.

My deepest condolences . It's been a honor knowing Peter, I've known him for over 30yrs when I started as a new graduate and now as a business owner , he always had time for the little guy .
RIP Peter you will be missed!

We "grew up" with Peter as 1-5y bowlers at Glendowie Bowling Club. Had some intense but amiable competitions against him. He truly went the extra mile for the Club and will miss our chats over late afternoon practices. May your green run true Peter and wishing your whanau a long life. Helen and Liz

To Jacquie & Family, sad to hear of Peters passing.
I worked with Peter at Shalfoons for over 10 years.

Peter was always cheerful and most happy to have a chat about anything when he made his rounds to visit for work. To Peter's dearest family and friends, we have lost a wonderful person! We will miss you!

Our sincere condolences to Peter´s family. We have known Peter for many years and we are shocked to hear of his passing. We always found Peter friendly and enjoyed his company. We will certainly miss him.

I'm so sad to say that less than 2 months after saying goodbye to Dad (Kenny Walker), that one of my Dad's best friends Peter Wagner has passed away also. He showed me such kindness and support by holding the wake for Dad at the Bowling Club and speaking at Dad's funeral. Now they are both together playing bowls up there, at the big bowling green in the sky. This is heart breaking, and I hope he knew how grateful I was for his help this year. My love to all Peter's family and friends. RIP Peter.

My sincerest and deepest sympathy to Peter's family. He was a beautiful soul and it was an honor to have met and dealt with him. May he rest eternal in peace

Very sad to hear of Peter´s passing. I have known Peter for 44 years in the dental trade as a Dental Rep. Many a good yarn has been had over those years. So sorry you never got to enjoy your retirement Pete. RIP. I hope there´s a good bowling club up there.

We extend our deepest sympathies to Peter's family and friends. During the entire time we lived in Saint Johns, Peter was our neighbour. He was a kind neighbour and friend. We were privileged to know him, and we will sincerely miss him and our wonderful talks. Rest in peace, Peter.

Sending my condolences to Peter´s family. It has been a privilege knowing him for over 20 years and we always enjoyed good conversations.

We met Pete through common ownership of a horse, Prise de Fer. We travelled to watch him race a lot of times, Hastings, Hamilton, Wellington etc on multiple occasions. Pete was always part of our team and leading the way, always welcoming to everyone and introduced us to owners in other horses. We had great fun together but sadly only for the duration of Prise de Fers career, which poignantly finishes tomorrow with his final race in the Auckland Cup. Hope the old boy can do ii for Pete. We will miss the banter in the car, airport lounges as we travelled, thanks for memories Pete, we were lucky to have known you and you will be missed, From Tina and David

My sincere condolences to Peter´s family, he was one helluva great guy, and we have known each other for 40 years through business ,we shared a huge interest in race horses had a great time last year at the Melbourne Cup, will be sadly missed RIP
