Pete Duerte was more than a talented local musician. He was a friend, a drummer known by many, and someone who was great both on and off the stage. This fundraiser is being organized by the community to support Pete’s surviving wife and daughters as they face the heartbreaking loss of someone deeply loved by family, friends, and the local music community. Pete’s presence meant so much to so many, and his kindness and character left a lasting mark far beyond his music.
This fundraiser will help ease the burden of funeral expenses and immediate living costs for Pete’s family during this incredibly difficult time. As they grieve, the hope is to give them a little breathing room and practical support when they need it most. Friends, fans, and community members who knew Pete or were touched by his life are invited to come together and help support his family. Any support, whether through a donation or by sharing this fundraiser, will mean so much and will honor the memory of a great musician, a great friend, and a truly good person.
