Pierre Dushime Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Pierre's journey began in Rwanda, where he completed his middle school education before moving to the United States. He attended Natick High School and later graduated from Mass Bay Community College in Wellesley with a two-year degree in 2022.
Pierre's commitment to serving others led him to join the US Air Force in January 2023. He was not only a dedicated airman but also a talented athlete, excelling in basketball and Taekwondo. His sharp intellect and unwavering determination to overcome challenges made him a respected and admired individual among his peers.
Tragically, Pierre passed away on June 25, 2024, while serving in the US Air Force in Wyoming. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him. Pierre's legacy will be remembered for his resilience, his determination to help everyone around him, and his embodiment of the spirit of perseverance and achievement.
In the words of a wise saying, "In the end, just three things matter: How well we have lived, how well we have loved, and how well we have learned to let go." Pierre lived a life that truly reflected these values, and his memory will continue to inspire those who had the privilege of knowing him.
Visiting Hours on Wednesday July 3rd from 10am-12:30pm. Followed by Prayer Service at 12:30pm. Interment will follow at St. Patrick Cemetery, Natick with full military honors.

Pierre was always filled with smiles that brightened everyone´s day. My first conversation with him was him telling me he was from Rwanda, my younger brother currently schools in Rwanda. I called my brother to know I found someone from Rwanda lol. Pierre was so pleasant while he spoke with him. We spoke extensively that day like we´ve known each other for a while. The last time I saw him was at an awards ceremony, he sat in front of me and I remember because I took a picture and luckily the back of his head was in the picture. Rest in peace, proud to have served alongside you Airman.
