Pete Vukovich, 87, passed away peacefully in his sleep on July 6, 2025. Born in Gary, Indiana he attended Indiana University for Accounting and then Law school. Pete married Linda (née Zoerner) in 1961 and raised their family in Munster, IN, Houston, TX, and Columbia, SC.
Pete loved his children, grandchildren, and dogs deeply. His favorite spot was on the floor with a dog or a kid. He grew Texas Star Hibiscus and tomatoes. He made a mean steak, delicious kolaches, and stick to your ribs chili.
Most of all, Pete was kind, intelligent, and had a wonderful sense of humor. He is survived by his wife, Linda, his children Peter M. Vukovich, Pamela J. Vukovich (Tony Garcia), Belle V. Kenoyer (Curt), brother Don Johnston (Linda), and brother Rich Johnston. In addition, he is survived by his three grandsons Aidan, Brady, and Gavin Kenoyer, whom he adored.
He was preceded in death by his father, George Vukovich, his mother, Barbara Johnston, and his brother Jimmy Johnston.
No formal services are being held as requested. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests a donation in Pete's memory to the Houston SPCA due to his love of his adopted dogs throughout his life.
