December 21st, 1976 - July 13th, 2023
With heavy hearts, we bid farewell to a remarkable soul, Pedro Felipe Gonzalez Fajardo, affectionately known as Pete, who departed from us at 46 on July 13th, 2023, in Pennsylvania, due to a heart attack. Pete was born on December 21st, 1976, in Bogota, Colombia, to his loving parents, Alberto Gonzalez, and Graciela Fajardo, alongside his cherished sister, Andrea Consiglieri.
Pete lived life to the fullest and was the beacon of joy at every gathering, his humor capable of always lifting spirits. His heart overflowed with love, especially for children and his canine friends. In his final years, Pete devoted himself to guiding and supporting young individuals and adults impacted by the affliction of drugs, leaving a lasting mark on their lives.
Having spent his childhood in Queens, New York, Pete's journey took him to Denver, Colorado, where he developed long lasting friendships and spent much time with his family, Pete, finally settled in Pennsylvania. Though he faced the loss of his beloved father, Alberto Gonzalez, at a young age, Pete's resilience and determination were evident as he continued to inspire all those around him.
In addition to his numerous accomplishments and acts of kindness, Pete was known for his magnetic personality, which attracted many friends from all walks of life. His genuine warmth and unwavering loyalty created a vast network of cherished friends lucky to have him as a confidante and a constant source of joy.
With a heart that knew no bounds, Pete touched the lives of countless souls, leaving an enduring impact on everyone he encountered. The memories of his infectious laughter, compassionate spirit, and unwavering support will forever live on in the hearts of those fortunate enough to call him a friend.
Rest in peace, dear Pete. Your light will forever shine.
