Peter Guerra

February 15, 2006 — November 14, 2017

A bright light gone out to soon…
Peter David Guerra died November 14, 2017, much too soon. He was a son to Pete and Susan Guerra, a brother to Isabelle and Olivia Guerra, and a friend to all.

Peter was born in Durango on February 15, 2006 and immediately brought his light and joy to the world. He grew up loved and passed that love on to everyone he met. Though his life was too short, he touched the hearts of many and was a light who continues to shine through those whose lives he touched. He was never without a smile on his face or a kind word for the people around and brought compassion into everyone’s life.

Peter never gave up, he loved school and excelled in his classes, he especially loved math and science and continued to spread his compassion by tutoring kids at Riverview as a fifth grader. Peter’s loving heart never hesitated to help a friend in need. He lived his life trying to find his passion and after trying almost every sport
Durango has to offer he found it, climbing. He fell in love with the sport immediately and his newfound climbing family. He was asked to join the climbing team in September and he could not have been happier. Peter competed in several competitions and lit up with joy after every route he completed or even just tried. The love he found in rock climbing seemed meant to be, as Peter means ‘rock’.

A memorial service will be held at 11:00 am on Saturday, November 25, 2017 at St. Columba Church in Durango.

In lieu of flowers please donate to a Memorial Fund that has been set up at the Bank of Colorado in Peter’s name to help support Rock Climbing in Durango.
