Mitzi Sue Hoffman

Mitzi Sue Hoffman, born on July 23, 1954, in San Gabriel, California, passed away on October 2, 2021, in Alhambra, California. She was the beloved youngest daughter of Charles and Janet Hoffman.

 

Growing up in Temple City, Mitzi attended local schools where she distinguished herself as a creative and talented student. Her vibrant spirit shone through her involvement in athletics and as a cheerleader. Ever the little sister striving to keep up with her older sisters, she brought energy and determination to everything she pursued.

 

Mitzi cared deeply for those around her-family, friends, and even the family pets. She had a special bond with Cindy, the family's beautiful collie, and shared her home with an assortment of animals that made up their cherished menagerie.

 

She is survived by her middle sister Renee and brother-in-law David, along with cousins from the Hoffman and Altman families and friends. Mitzi predeceased her eldest sister, Avon. Her family remembers her as a caring, sensitive soul who fought bravely against illness with unwavering determination.

As Robert F. Kennedy once quoted from Aeschylus:

 

"And even in our sleep, pain which cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart, until in our own despair, against our will comes wisdom through the awful grace of God."

 

May Mitzi's soul be bound up in eternity. Rest in peace Mitzi.
