Peter Hesse III Obituary
Peter A. Hesse III (February 4, 1942 to February 3, 2025) of Glenwood Landing, NY, passed away at the age of 82, just one day shy of his 83rd birthday.
Peter was a remarkable man—an incredible father, husband, grandfather, great grandfather, brother, proud Honorary Member of the Glenwood Fire Company, Commissioner of the Glenwood Water District. Beloved husband and best friend of Kathleen for 61 years. Loving father to Robin, Barbara and Tarra. Cherished grandfather to Jennifer, Vinny and Samantha. Loving great grandfather to Gia and Kye. Supportive brother to George and sister Patty.
He will also be missed by many nieces and nephews. He is predeceased by his brothers Jimmy and John. His legacy of true friendship, leadership, volunteerism, and generosity—paired with his incredible sense of humor—will forever resonate throughout our community.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to Maryhaven Center of Hope in Pete's name.
