July 3, 2024 – Germantown, WI – Thoughts and prayers to Retired Police Chief Peter Hoell’s family. According to his wife, Anne-Marie, Hoell has passed away.
In April 2024 Hoell wrote: This post is not about asking for sympathy but rather an explanation that I probably won’t be posting much now and in the near future.
As many know, I have been diagnosed with a long-term illness. I have good days and bad. I am limited to what I can do.
I am going to keep fighting this for as long as I can. I enjoy posting, but we will see.
Stay safe be kind and God bless
Retired Chief Pete
