He graduated from Southpointe High School and shortly thereafter enlisted in the army in 2010. He was stationed in Fort Lewis, Washington for three years and toured in Afghanistan defending our country, where he advanced to the rank of Specialist. Race attended Salt Lake Community College, and worked for Allied Barton at L3 Communications as an Assistant Lead Officer in charge of overseeing the training of security guards. In his free time, Race thoroughly enjoyed playing guitar and creating music with his friends, who gave him a place in this world to freely express himself.
He is survived by his parents Wesley and Susan Peterson and his three younger brothers, Jared, Zachary and Trevor Peterson, all of whom refer to him as their hero. He will be loved and missed dearly from all who knew him—friends and family alike.
