Henry Wilson Stoehr

Henry Stoehr, 89, a longtime resident of Davidsonville, MD, passed away on June 13, 2025, after a brief illness. Born on June 7, 1936, in Washington, DC, Henry was the son of Henry William "Chris" and Martha Lee "Pat" Stoehr and was raised in Montgomery County, MD. He proudly served in the U.S. Navy from 1956 to 1959 and later retired from PEPCO after 33 years of dedicated service. Henry was preceded in death by the love of his life, his wife of 57 years, Diana "Dee" Stoehr. He is survived by his daughter, Tracy Powelson of Davidsonville, MD, and his son, Mike Stoehr (Gabby) of Edgewater, MD. He was a proud grandfather to three grandsons: Christopher Stoehr, Patrick Stoehr, and Ryan Powelson. A man of many talents and boundless energy, Henry led a full and vibrant life. He was an early member of the former Pelican Sport Skydiving Club, a world-champion wildfowl carver, boater, and a licensed private pilot. He built homes, crafted fine furniture, and was always ready to lend a hand with a project-whether for family, friends, or just for the joy of building something with his hands. He had a lifelong passion for classic cars, especially his restored 1929 Model A and his beloved Corvette. In keeping with his wishes, services will be private. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to any of Henry's favorite charities: The Ward Foundation, the BARCS Franky Fund, the Wounded Warrior Project, or a charity of your choice.
