Peter E. Hubbard ’64

Peter died Dec. 28, 2025, of pancreatic cancer in Greenville, S.C.  

He was born in Milwaukee and graduated from Milwaukee University School, where he played tennis and football. At Princeton, he majored in economics, joined Tiger Inn, and rowed with heavyweight crew. Following graduation, Peter graduated from Navy officer candidate school and then sailed from San Diego on two six-month deployments to Southeast Asia aboard the USS Stoddard. While in San Diego, he met local schoolteacher Judy Glass, starting a 57-year love story.  

Peter’s career began in sales/marketing with Flying Tiger in Los Angeles, participating in their expansion worldwide, which led to his visiting most of the world’s major commercial cities. In 1985, he shifted to Midland Enterprises in Cincinnati, a large barge transportation company.  

Peter was curious and kind with a wry sense of humor and mischievous twinkle in his eye. His love for his family knew no bounds, and he was happiest at home with family, friends, and countless golden retrievers. 

Peter and Judy retired to Seabrook Island, S.C., in 2005, where they enjoyed their grandchildren, golf, ocean, friends, travel, and volunteering with his church and Habitat for Humanity.  

To his wife, Judy, their children, Chris and Hillary, and their families, the class extends its condolences.
