Pete was a native and lifelong resident of Vinton. He was a 1969 graduate of Starks High School and later attended Sowela Technical School for welding and diesel mechanics. Pete was an amazing husband, father, grandfather and friend. He was always known for helping many people through the years, especially with welding, working on rigs, and anything that had a motor! He worked as an owner/operator of a crude oil tanker and was leased out to Endeavor Tank. Pete enjoyed gardening, especially growing watermelon and some of the most beautiful potatoes you would ever see. He was a great mentor to his grandson, SPC. Kenneth Aaron Hudson and great-nephew, Sonny Hudson.
