Condolences
The family of Ronald L. Hoffmann has received the following condolences.
Ron will be dearly missed. I was one the home health care nurses that worked with Ron on a daily basis. He was always a joy to work with, and had gotten to know him well over the last year and a half. He always had a smile for me, and usually a compliment of some kind. I had never once seen him in a bad mood. Just a very positive guy, day after day. He was a very special client, and Ron will always be remembered. It has been quite the shock, and hard time time to grasp this sudden end of his life. He recently gave me a keepsake that on it was written: "Special people we meet along life's way, make our journey brighter by the things they do and say."
Sending you all our deepest sympathy. Take care, Mick and Cyndi Hillesheim
OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH ALL OF YOU AT THE TIME OF YOUR LOSS
To Elayne, Patti, Jeanne, Bill, and families, our sympathy to each of you, what a shock to hear of Ronnie's death. Our hearts go out to you at this difficult time. In sympathy, Emily and Brian Gleisner.
I am so sorry that Ron has passed. My thoughts and prayers are with Lynn and Ken and the Hoffman family for their loss.
My condolences to Ron's family and friends. I knew him only over the phone as we at CenterLine have done business with Freereksen for as long as I've been here, 16+ years. I always looked forward to talking with him. Ron was a positive, kind and funny guy in our conversations and he was tops to work with as a dispatcher. He will be missed. God Bless.
Our prayers and sympathy to all of you. May God be with all of you. Sincerely, Cindy and Mike Hillesheim, Kay, Matt, Cody, Riley, and Jaidyn Hillesheim, Michelle, Matt, Emma and Finnley Lucht
may you find peace at the lose of your love one, Ronnie
