    Not real familiar with Florida trees, but if it were here I'd think maybe persimmon? What sort of fruit was on the tree? Are you sure it's a fruit tree?

    Probably a stone fruit of some sort, maybe a plum. Suckers behind green stake definitely look like they have the leaves and twigs of a peach tree (Prunus persica), maybe the rest was grafted onto a peach seedling.

    The leaves remind me of avocado.

    The leaves remind me of a Fringetree (Chionanthus virginicus) but the fall color is yellow. It is likley a fruit tree

    Closeup looks like Prunus salicina.
