Peter K. Dolan ’85

PETER K. DOLAN, Carbondale, CO, died in January 2023. Peter co-captained the Saint Michael’s lacrosse team for two years in the earliest days of the program. According to co-captain and classmate Bill Dromeshauser, “There was something exceptionally special about Peter that helped a fledgling group of young men persevere and grow into an extremely cohesive group. It goes without saying that Peter worked as hard as anyone on the field, but what set him apart was his presence. He seemed more mature, more driven, with better clarity on the goals ahead—clarity on life! He was a tremendous leader who was upbeat and led by example. He commanded great respect because he earned it. More importantly, he was a person of high integrity, a kind person, a dear friend, and a loving husband and father.” Peter was a ski instructor, a successful builder, and a businessman in Aspen, CO. He and his wife Julie were longtime volunteers with the “Big Buddies” mentoring program. Peter is survived by his wife Julie, a daughter, a son, extended family, and great friends.
