McAllen - Ramon Pedro “R.P.” Guerra, II was born on August 17, 1956, in McAllen, Texas. He grew up on his family’s ranch in San Manuel TX, where he got the chance to do what he loved the most every day, helping his father as a ranch hand. R.P began his law enforcement career with the McAllen Police Department where he served as a police officer for 9 years before finishing the rest of his law enforcement career as a Customs Officer with the U.S Customs and Boarder Protection. He passed away peacefully at the age of 61 in his home on January 5, 2018 surrounded by the loves of his life, his wife and two children. R.P was a devoted husband and father. He was a loving uncle to his nieces and nephews who knew and loved him as “Tio Pete”.
