Thomas "Tom" Hoffsis, 63, of Bowling Green, passed away Thursday, March 23, 2023, at his residence.

He was born May 7, 1959, in Bowling Green, to the late George and Gloria (Shaffer) Hoffsis. He married Peggy (Robbins) on June 16, 1984, and she survives.

He was also preceded in death by his best friend, George Thompson.

Tom was a graduate of Bowling Green State University and worked at Hoffsis Upholstery for many years. He enjoyed refurbishing old cars, hosting get togethers and parties, but his greatest love was being with his children and grandchildren.

I brought numerous vehicles over the years for Tom to refurbish the seats. He always did great work. I worked with his wife for many years. My condolences go out to Peggy and the family.

Tom´s family,
I am sorry to hear the news of Tom´s demise. He and I were the best of friends when we were young and in high school but drifted apart over the last 40-50 years. But my memories of him, his views on life when we were young will never be forgotten.

I´m sorry for your loss. May he rest in peace. Jerry Greiner
