Richard Hoffman Obituary

I send my love and condolences to each of the family members and to the work members. I never had a boss such as Dick before or after. He would clean the kitchen sink and walked around on a comfortable day without shoes. Yet he was very happy and relaxed. He also had a great intelligence beyond compare. He made a difference in my life. Again I send you love and prayers of strength and comfort to each of you.

Dick and I worked together for years in the area of real estate education for Mass Appraisers. He was instrumental in mentoring me toward a professional designation. There was much more. Dick was a friendly and out going in the conduct of his professional activities. His family was equally cordial. May the love of friends bring all comfort until the love of God brings them peace.

Dick was one of my earliest and most impactful mentors I had as rookie County Auditor in 1995. I will always remember his protractor he used while explaining the real estate appraisal process and other topics. I know I was a better Auditor for his sharing of his knowledge and experiences of the Auditor's Office. Jan, our deepest condolences to you and your family.

Richard was an exceptional friend my wife and I will forever cherish.

Dick Hoffman is someone I will remember forever. When I was a young County Auditor, he co-hosted a CAUV meeting with me in Ross County. Farmers were angry at the news that their property taxes were going up, but Dick was able to speak their language and keep the meeting civil. He helped me more times than I can count and taught me to embrace every "challenge and opportunity" that comes my way. I'll miss you, Mr. Hoffman. Thanks for the memories

RIP Richard Hoffman. Dick was a brilliant man and better human. He will be missed!

Jan, I am keeping you and your entire family in my thoughts and prayers. I hope you know how very, very special Dick was to my both personally and professionally. His multiple appointments and years of service on the Ohio Real Estate Appraiser Board were cherished by me and all who worked with him. My deepest sympathies,
