Peter DeNardis Honored, cont. from page 4<br />

Board of Trustees in 2008. In that capacity, he serves on the<br />

Publications Committee, was instrumental in helping to set up<br />

our new and improved website, and is currently our website<br />

administrator. He also is an important member of the Patient<br />

Database Team, developing questions for our WM patient<br />

database and coordinating the process of converting these<br />

questions to a format appropriate for computer use. Many<br />

of us probably know Peter best as the manager of our popular<br />

IWMF-Talk, an e-mail discussion list where all matters<br />

regarding WM are discussed among patients and caregivers.<br />

Peter and his wife, Terri, live in Aliquippa, PA, and have<br />

three children, Anthony J. (Joey), Nicole Antonia, and Ryan.<br />

Peter graduated from Robert Morris University in 1983 and<br />

received an MBA in Information Systems from the University<br />

of Pittsburgh in 1989. He is an Information Manager for the<br />

University of Pittsburgh.<br />

In his spare (?) time, Peter and his cousin enjoy making wine<br />

together. They buy crates of red and white grapes and do<br />

all the processing to produce bottles of Merlot, Chardonnay,<br />

Chablis, Pinot Noir, and other varieties. In the winter months,<br />

Peter makes prosciutto and dried sausage. He also loves to<br />

read, play tennis, walk, ride his bike, and travel. As you may<br />

have guessed by his interest in wine and prosciutto, Peter’s<br />

heritage is Italian, and Italy is one of his favorite places to<br />

visit – he enjoys everything Italian and has taught his children<br />

about his Italian traditions.<br />

A well-deserved tip of the hat goes to one who wears many<br />

hats for the IWMF – our own Peter DeNardis!<br />
