Peter Higgs (1929-2024) played a major role in the motivation for the LHC, CMS and ATLAS. The discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012 laid the groundwork for a completely new area of physics studies: physics of the Higgs boson. The CMS collaboration will be forever grateful, and he will be remembered with much fondness and esteem.
