Peter William Hill

In Loving Memory of Peter William Hill

September 28, 1960 - May 19, 2025

Peter Hill, a beloved lifelong Alaskan, passed away on May 19, 2025, at his home in Anchorage. He was 64 years old.

Born on September 28, 1960, Peter grew up immersed in the beauty and communities of Alaska. Those roots shaped the man he became, someone deeply kind, compassionate, and endlessly curious.

Peter was a proud father to two daughters, Kathryn-Marie Hill and Margaret Hill. He was frequently heard sharing about the joys he found in fatherhood and the pride he had for his children. He did his best to instill in them the values he held most dear: empathy, resiliency, creativity, and a commitment to doing what is right.

A devoted record collector and comic book enthusiast, Peter found delight in the stories and sounds that filled his shelves, a reflection of his deep appreciation for culture, creativity, and history. As a lifelong writer, Peter used the written word for connection. Whether journaling his thoughts or crafting a poem, writing was one of his truest forms of expression. Those that knew him remember his passion for sharing music, art, ideas, and conversation.

Peter's true enthusiasm was for people. He lived his life as a social justice warrior, always ready to stand up and speak out against those that seek to harm or invalidate the rights of others. Whether through activism or simple acts of everyday kindness, Peter worked tirelessly to make the world a better place.

Peter is survived by his daughters, along with dear friends and family who will forever carry his memory. His legacy lives on in the lives he touched and the values he championed.

A celebration of Peter's life will be held at 5:00 PM on July 17, 2025, at 3131 Amber Bay Loop, Anchorage, AK 99515. In honor of his unique spirit and love for imagination, guests are encouraged to dress in steampunk attire and bring a commemorative story to share.
