Edwin Max Hoyt Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Edwin Max Hoyt, age 81, entered eternal life on Friday, April 29, 2022. After several months of declining health, he passed peacefully with his loving wife, Sharon, and family by his side. Known as Max by family and friends, he was born to Dr. Herman and Harriett Hoyt of Winona Lake, IN on January 13, 1941. Max will be remembered by many of his Warsaw High School classmates as having a passion for music and the trumpet. He excelled in the marching & concert bands and often played at the pep rallies. His love of music spilled over into theater, once playing the lead part of Tevye in the musical, Fiddler On The Roof. In addition to music Max was an avid photographer and gifted many of his photographs to family and friends to be cherished for years to come. After a long career spanning more than 40 years, Max retired from R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company in Lancaster, PA and set his sights on living a peaceful life in New Hampshire. A few short years later he met and married his devoted wife of 9 years, Sharon. The two settled in Maine where they currently reside in Windham. Their favorite pastimes included eating out and sitting side-by-side holding hands. Active in Galilee Baptist Church, Max was proud to be a part of the security team. Max was preceded in death by his father, Dr. Herman Hoyt, his mother, Harriett, and his brother, Joe. He leaves behind his wife, Sharon and her family, and his three children, Greg Hoyt, Alli (Greg) Hamilton and Marcy (Gabe) Traylor as well as 5 grandchildren.
