- Peter Benner Obituary
Peter Benner, 47 of Nobleboro, passed away peacefully at his home on the evening of February 18, 2022, due to complications from ongoing severe kidney failure and Covid-19.
Peter was born on March 27, 1974 in Rockland, to David and Dorothy Benner of Nobleboro. He attended Nobleboro Central School, and graduated from Lincoln Academy in 1992.
Upon graduating high school, Peter entered the automotive industry, where he worked in various roles over the years; including the parts department at Wiscasset Ford and Parts Manager of Rockland Ford. During the past couple years, Peter was forced to step away from the auto industry to deal with his kidney disease, but was able to return to work part-time last summer, working for The Penalty Box in Damariscotta.
Peter was loved and will be missed by many. He was predeceased by his mother, Dorothy G. Benner.
He is survived by his two sons, Harley and Cooper Benner; his father, David A. Benner Sr.; his sister, Amy Fossett; brothers, David A. Benner Jr. and Wayne Benner; as well as many close family and friends.
Peter will be remembered for his love of motorcycles, cars and trucks and his desire to make people laugh and have a good time.
The Celebration of Life gathering will be held from 11am - 2pm, on Saturday, June 11, 2022, at the Wells-Hussey American Legion Hall, located at 524 Main Street, in Damariscotta. Peter would have wanted a party, so please bring your stories and memories of him, a dish to share (potluck style), and be prepared to smile, listen to some favorite songs and reunite with friends (There will be a cash bar). We are happy to share that there will be a First Annual Blessing of the Bikes on this day around 11:15am, with Pastor Jim Dowse from the Congregational Church of Bristol, performing a brief ceremony to honor Peter's love of motorcycling.
Arrangements are under the direction and care of the Strong-Hancock Funeral Home, 612 Main Street, Damariscotta. Condolences, and messages for his family, may be expressed by visiting: www.StrongHancock.com.
