Peter Berger, 82, male, White/Caucasian, died on August 28, 2025, at his residence in Los Angeles. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner associated his death with case number 2025-13733 and determined the manner of death to be suicide from a gunshot wound to the head, with formal pronouncement made on Thursday, August 28.
He was remembered in a Los Angeles Times obituary as a devoted father and grandfather, a lifelong Angeleno who built a thriving custom wall-covering business and
served honorably in the National Guard. Services were announced for early September, reflecting a family-centered remembrance of his life and work in the community.
Public memorial records list his burial at Mount Sinai Memorial Park in the Hollywood Hills, placing him among generations of Angelenos laid to rest there.
Because the death was ruled a suicide, authorities have not identified any suspects, and there have been no arrests connected to this case. No law-enforcement bulletins or homicide listings indicate otherwise, aligning with the coroner’s determination.
