Obituary

In Loving Memory of Kenneth C. Hoffman

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Kenneth C. Hoffman, who peacefully went to be with the angels on August 22, 2026, surrounded by the people who loved him most. After a long and difficult illness, Kenneth is finally at peace and no longer suffering. Although our hearts are broken by his passing, we find comfort knowing that he is now free from pain and watching over his family from heaven.

Kenneth was a devoted husband, loving father, proud grandfather, brother, uncle, and cherished friend. He shared his life with his beloved wife, Glenda J. Hoffman, and together they built a family filled with love and memories. He was a wonderful father to Kimberly Ann Hoffman-Colburn and Sarah Beth Preziuso and a loving father-in-law to Kurt Colburn and Gianluca Preziuso. His family was one of the greatest joys of his life.

Kenneth was a proud and loving grandfather to Hannah Colburn, Cade Colburn, Antonio Preziuso, and great grandfather to Conway Colburn. The love he had for his grandchildren was special, and the memories they made together will remain with them for the rest of their lives. He will forever be a part of their stories, their hearts, and the lives they continue to build. He is also survived by his beloved siblings, Dolores Stegelin, Calvin Hoffman, and Cindy Allen, along with extended family and dear friends who will remember him with love.

In Kenneth’s final moments, his loving family was by his side. His wife, Glenda, his daughters, Kimberly and Sarah, his siblings, Dolores, Calvin, and Cindy, and his loved ones surrounded him with love, holding him close and saying goodbye. He did not leave this world alone; he left surrounded by the people who meant the most to him.

Kenneth’s life will be remembered not only by the years he lived, but by the love he gave and the lives he touched. He leaves behind countless memories, stories, laughter, and a family who will carry his love with them always.

Dad, you were a wonderful father, grandfather, husband, brother, and friend. We wish we could have had more time with you, but we are grateful for every moment we were given. Your suffering is over, your work here is done, and your beautiful soul is free. We will miss you every day, but we will look for you in the beautiful moments ~ the sunrise, the quiet skies, the memories that make us smile, and in the love we share as a family.

Fly high, Dad. Rest peacefully. Watch over us from heaven until the day we meet again. You were deeply loved. You will be forever missed. And you will live in our hearts for all eternity.
