Dewey (Dutch) Hoover left our physical world on July 19th 2018 to be with the Lord. He passed away after a short and hard-fought battle with acute leukemia. He was preceded in death by his parents Norman G. Hoover and Ladell Lee Hoover both of Norman Oklahoma. As a member of the third generation of Hoovers’ from the Norman area and a graduate of the University of Oklahoma, Dewey had a developed a great pride in the city of Norman as well as a large number of friend and acquaintances over the years. He is survived by his two brothers Norman G Hoover Jr. of Madison, Alabama and Carroll McKinley (Mac) Hoover of Morristown, Arizona plus numerous nieces and cousins across the country.
Dewey requested not to have a large service but a memorial Mass and prayer service will be open to anyone who would like to attend at Saint Thomas University More Parish in Norman on August 14th 2018 at 5:15 PM. The family is asking that instead of flowers, a donation should be made to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in Dutch’s name.
