It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Charles Andrew Hoehne, beloved husband, father, son, uncle, grandfather, and friend, who left this world on September 2, 2025. Andy was 65 years old and passed peacefully at his home at Litchfield Park, Az.

Andy was born on June 1, 1960, in Albuquerque, New Mexico, to Charles Richard Hoehne and Sadie Hoehne. He grew up surrounded by love and laughter. He lived a life rich in purpose, touching the hearts of everyone who had the privilege to know him. He was known for his humor, kindness and generosity. His warm smile could brighten the darkest of days. He was a mentor to many and was cherished and loved by all.

As a devoted husband, Andy cherished his beloved wife Wanda Hoehne, creating a bond that was the foundation of their family. Andy and Wanda were married for an admirable 30 years. He was a remarkable man who devoted his life to making Wanda feel loved and special every day. With unwavering support, he was not just a partner but a true friend, always ready with a helping hand. Andy had a unique way of bringing joy into their home, filling it with laughter and warmth. His selflessness and dedication to their relationship were evident in every act of kindness, inspiring those around him. As a devoted husband, he built a life rich in love, leaving an indelible mark on her heart that will forever be treasured. 

Andy worked for Smith’s food and drug, as a Grocery Delivery Driver from 1981 to 2004, a total of 23 years. Andy and Wanda were business owners for Fixit-Quik Watch and Jewelry Repair at Desert Sky Mall in Phoenix, Az, from 2004-2020. Afterwards Andy worked for Tolleson School District as a bus driver from 2017 – 2025. Beyond his work, he was a passionate outdoorsman who found joy in the beauty of nature. His love for cooking and gardening reflected his nurturing spirit, as he delighted in sharing the fruits of his labor with family and friends.  Whether camping under the stars, riding at the dunes, or casting a line at the lake, Andy embraced the outdoor life with enthusiasm and zest for adventure. His warmth, laughter, and love for the great outdoors will be missed, but his spirit will forever inspire those who shared in his passions.

His daughters Carmen Hoehne and Dee Cortez (Eric Joffe), his grandchildren Frankie, Eliyanah, Alexandra. He was also a cherished uncle, bringing joy and wisdom to the lives of his nieces and nephews. He was an amazing brother, always offering support and encouragement to his siblings. They all will carry forward his legacy of love, resilience, and passion. He will be remembered not only for his remarkable life but also for the love and joy he brought to everyone around him.
