This Christmas my wife and I visited her family in Israel. On the way back we spent three glorious days with Peter Hibbs, his wonderful wife Anita and their lovely daughter Victoria.
We became instant friends when I started at Chambly in 1970. Peter taught mathematics at CCHS from 1969 until 1974 when they moved back to Cheltenham, England (about 2 hours west of London).

Satisfied with his career change (letters don't answer back), he continued as a mailman until his second retirement April 2009. Peter will always be remembered as an excellent math teacher and one who used to have "unusual punishments" for his students who didn't quite appreciate his British sense of discipline. J
