Gunter Angermayr entered this world on November 8, 1957, in Braunau am Inn, Austria and left us on August 8, 2025 in Denver, Colorado.

Born and raised in the mountains of Austria, Günter carried the spirit of the Alps with him wherever he went. It's no surprise he made his home in Colorado, those peaks reminded him of where it all began. As a young man he drove for the Red Cross through winding alpine roads, always guided by a deep sense of purpose and service and in retirement in Estes Park where he drove tourists over the mountain to go rafting guided by a sense of adventure and love for his mountains.

A man of many passions, Günter's heartbeat to the rhythm of jazz, folk, and bluegrass music that told stories as richly as he could. He volunteered for many years at Swallow Hill Music and enjoyed over 20 Walnut Valley Bluegrass Festivals in Winfield, KS.

He loved the crack of a bat on a summer afternoon and could talk baseball, soccer and hockey with the best of them.

But it was political history that truly lit up his mind; he read it deeply, spoke it sharply, and understood it like few could. Hands down, he was the smartest person in the room, but he never made you feel smaller for it. Just lucky to be there. Gunter held several degrees from Southwestern College, Winfield, KS and University of Denver.

Preceded in death by his parents Franz Angermayr and Maria Angermayr, Wife Janis Angermayr, Father-in-law Charles James (Jim) Matthews, Sister-in-law Joni Davis and Brother-in-law Bruce Miller.

Survived by his son Matthew John Angermayr of Fort Lupton, CO, his brother Robert (Elisabeth) Angermayr of Linz Austria, Sister-in-law Jalynn (Jerre) Nolte of Lawerence, KS, Sister-In-Law Jill Miller of Wichita, KS, and Brother-In-Law Charles Davis of El Dorado, KS, Exchange Siblings, and many nieces and nephews.
