Peter Davis Lazar

Peter Davis Lazar, born June 7, 1983, left us in the Bridger Mountains Tuesday, February

26th. He died on his skis doing what he loved best. The avalanche that caught him gave him no chance.



Pete surrounded himself with loving friends and family. His fascination about the world

and boundless curiosity was both infectious and inspiring. Pete continues to be a shining light

in all our lives. He is missed.



Pete grew up in Santa Fe, NM. He attended college first at UNM in Albuquerque, then

graduated from MSU in Bozeman with a degree in Fish and Wildlife Biology. Two years ago,

after seven seasons of salmon fishing in Alaska, Pete returned to school with renewed passion. He had just been accepted into the Doctor of Physical Therapy program at the University of Utah, where he was to begin his studies in May.



Pete was preceded in death by his mother, Leslie Davis and his uncle, Charlie

Stathacos. He is survived by his father William Lazar and his wife Lynn Rosen, his brother

Aaron, sister-in-law Jenny, nieces Leslie Rose and Frances Rae, aunts Patty Wilson, Lauren

Davis, and Margery Lazar, uncles Rich Wilson, and Jad Davis, and his cousins Alex Wilson and Ellen Lyons.



A Celebration of Pete’s life will be held at 5:30PM Tuesday, March 5th at Jim Bridger

Lodge, Bridger Bowl MT.
