Peter Whitehead Sanderson’s 1946–1949
Peter was born in Shoreham-by-Sea on 25 April 1932. He attended Lancing from 1946–1949, after which he emigrated to Africa in search of adventure, eventually settling in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe). He became a successful commercial farmer, entrepreneur, and respected business owner. He was a loving husband and supportive father, ultimately outliving three wives, Lee, Heather and Cherry. He travelled extensively, was a true gentleman, led by example and remained intellectually curious to the end. His Lancing education served him unfailingly through his life and was a constant through the many trials he encountered. He lived out his final years happily in the south of Portugal with close friends and family, near the ocean he loved. He is survived by his two sons, Adam and Thomas, two stepsons, Steven and James, and a multitude of step grandchildren. Peter passed away peacefully on 6 December 2021, aged 89, having lived his life to the full. ADAM WHITEHEAD
