Peter Hoxie, a devoted father and cherished grandfather, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, December 2, 2025, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He was 81 years old.

Born on February 1, 1944, in Waltham, Massachusetts, Peter was the son of John Alden Hoxie and Thelma Morris. Peter moved to Florida with his family as a young boy and graduated from Stranahan High School.

Peter proudly served his country in the United States Navy from 1963 until his honorable discharge in 1970. Following his military service, he established a long and successful career as a skilled Automobile Mechanic.

Known for his funny, kind, witty, and caring nature, Peter had a magnetic personality that endeared him to everyone he met. He possessed a legendary "green thumb" and found immense joy in gardening and orchid farming.

Peter also devoted significant time to his daughters' music education, where they found more than friends - they all found family. His dedication helped create a close-knit community that was a central part of their lives.

Peter was preceded in death by his parents, John Alden Hoxie and Thelma Morris, and his brothers, John and David. He is survived by his beloved daughters, Brittany and Kimberlee, and his cherished granddaughter, Hunter. He was a deeply caring and loving presence in their lives.
