Peter Hennessy

On the afternoon of December 15, 2020, Peter Hennessy passed away at the age of 79 at Waynesboro Health and Rehabilitation Center.

He was born on June 30, 1941 in Baltimore, Maryland to the late Paul and Virginia Martin Hennessy.

Along with his parents, he was preceded in death by his wife, Barbara Hennessy.

Peter made a career from enlisting in the United States Navy before retiring after 31 years. He spent 20 years as active military and 11 years in the reserves. During his military career, he was CPO E7 status and spent seven years flying with the Blue Angels in Plane #1. After his impressive military career, he started B&H electronics, where he worked for five years before selling it.

Mr. Hennessy enjoyed being outdoors. One day he would head to the river for some fishing, while the next he could have been in a tree stand hunting for that trophy buck. During the summer months he dedicated his time to coaching baseball to the local youth.

Mr. Hennessy leaves behind to cherish his memory his children, Bill Hennessy, Janice Hennessy, and Dennis (Misty) Hennessy; siblings, Paul Hennessy, Virginia Ann Moss, and Margaret Hennessy; five grandchildren; and one great-grandchild.

A military memorial service will be planned for a later time.

Adair Funeral and Cremation Services assisted the family with arrangements.
