Gary Norman Hoff

On October 31, 2017, we lost our dear brother, Gary, after a long and brave battle with cancer.

Gary was born at St. Patrick's hospital in Missoula on February 8, 1967. Growing up in Thompson Falls, Gary was popular and loved, known for his quick wit and sense of humor. He graduated from Thompson Falls High School in 1985.

After graduating from the University of Montana, Gary moved to Southern California where he put his Finance degree to good use at the successful public safety tech company he owned and operated there.

Gary is preceded in death by our parents, Beryl and Maynard Hoff, his best friend and cousin, Chris Wollaston, and numerous other cousins, aunts and uncles.

He was a loving and devoted father to his three sons, Matthew, 25, Ryan 12, and Colby, 10. His boys were the light in his world and his purpose in life. In addition to his children, Gary is survived by his wife, Jennifer; his siblings Ray Hoff, Ron Hoff, Nancy Martin; sister-in-law Paula Hoff; brother-in-law Dave Martin, Aunt Tillie Wollaston, and many cousins, nieces and nephews.

A memorial service will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Friday, Nov. 17, at St. Kilian Catholic Church in Mission Viejo, Calif.

A shining light has been extinguished in our family too soon, and he is sorely and desperately missed.
