Deanna Mercer Hoffman

Deanna M. Hoffman, beloved daughter, sister, wife, mother, and grandmother, passed away peacefully on December 18, 2023. She was born and raised in Tooele, Utah, where she met her husband Robert (Bob) Hoffman and where they started their family. Later the family relocated to Pueblo, Colorado, then eventually on to Olympia, Washington, where she lived for 44 years. She enjoyed working at various places of employment, but she was predominantly a homemaker. Raising her family was her greatest achievement and joy. She enjoyed baking, crafting, painting, bowling, traveling (to Hawaii in particular!), going to the movies, and most of all spending time with family and friends. She also volunteered at Providence St. Peter Hospital for approximately 20 years.

She is survived by her three children Steven Hoffman (Cindy), Ted Hoffman (Nanyeon), and Lori Gregg (Art); two granddaughters Jessica Yunker (Trevor) and Brandy Hoffman; great grandchildren, Amelia Yunker, and Quinlan Sanford; and her brother and sister-in-law, Paul and Harriet Mercer.

She is preceded in death by her husband Bob Hoffman; her son Michael Hoffman; her sisters Margene Thomas, Valerie Rydalch, Linda Lane; and her parents Ruby (Vowles) and Warran Mercer.

A viewing and graveside service was held for close family and friends on Thursday, January 11, 2024, at Mills & Mills Funeral Home & Memorial Park in Tumwater, Washington.
