Jeffrey Hockenberry Obituary
He was born in Butler, on Oct. 28, 1964, to the late Benjamin and Isabel (Sherman) Hockenberry.
He graduated from Butler High School and New Castle Trade School, then worked at Friedman's Supermarket for many years.
Jeffrey loved everyone and everyone loved him. He had a great sense of humor and enjoyed joking around. Being in a wheelchair for 33 years, all he wanted was to be able to walk; he is now.
Jeffrey was the brother of Drusilla (Rodney) Rensel and Shelley Hepler; and uncle of Todd (Manda), Chad (Amy), Amber, Randy (Becca), Mike (Jenna), Cheyenne (Zachary), Lee and Dalton. He is also survived by numerous great-nieces and great-nephews.
