I met Larry at Dave Knapps recently while we were waiting for our cars to be fixed. We chatted for almost 30 minutes. He was such a friendly and caring man. He mostly talked about his daughters, and the love he felt for them was transparent. I am so very sorry for your loss.

Dear Judy, Shelly, and Amanda,
Larry was a wonderfully kind and compassionate man and police officer that my family was blessed to have known for the past 10 years. His smile and and "hello waves" will be something I will always miss, but as I look into the sky and feel a comforting breeze blow the clouds that the Lord has made; I will know this angel will be waving to all of us once again! May God Bless you and comfort you in this difficult time.

There wasn't a day that went by that I did not look for Chief Hoffman at the School zone. He cared about the children of the community. He would always smile and wave to everyone. This town will not be the same without Larry.

You will be sadly missed here in Ansonia Not one person could ever say a bad thing about Larry. Everyone looked up to Larry as a friend he never said a bad thing about anyone always had a laugh always had a smile or just a wave or even a nod of the head . He was one of the kindness man I knew. Once again he will be sadly missed here in Ansonia and through out Darke County.
