Obituary of Giordana Rae Fletcher-Pettis

Giordana “Bup” Rae Fletcher-Pettis was born on August 6, 2003 to the union of Courtney June Fletcher and Lynn Cecil Pettis, Sr. in Colorado Springs, Colorado. She was called home on Monday, August 22, 2022 at 2:26PM.

She attended Widefield High School and graduated May 2022. She excelled in musical performance, participating in the women’s choir and school theater productions, providing angelic solo performances, and landed the starring role of Gabriella in her school’s production of High School Musical. Giordana’s beautiful voice also earned her a golden ticket to American Idol at age 15. Due to her young age, the judges encouraged her to continue singing and come back when she got a bit older. She once had her sights set on joining the United States Air Force, but decided to continue with her love of music and performance. She spent her spare time singing and playing her guitar for her family, friends, and social media following. Also, she enjoyed video game streaming, and showing off her trendy looks and styles online. Giordana was a lover of animals and nature, often admiring the blues and purples of sunrises and sunsets.

She was preceded in death by her paternal grandparents, L.C. and Trudy Pettis; her pet lizard, Mama Girl; and pet rabbit, Bunni.

She leaves to cherish her beautiful memory mother, Courtney (Anthony) Anderson; father, Lynn Pettis, Sr.; siblings, Sergio (Katie), Harmony, and Raniero; her maternal grandparents; a host of aunts, uncles, and cousins; and special friend, Julian Romero.

Giordana was a beautiful soul, loved by so many in her community. Life will certainly not be the same without her warm smile.

She was God’s Angel and He was ready to call our Lover of Life Home but she will be ever present in those sunrises and sunsets.
