Doc Hoffmann was not a chiropractor in the modern sense - 10 minutes of manipulation and "see ya next week". Doc would work on my pain racked body for several hours until everything was right and pain free. I always felt that by the grace of God, Doc was a healer in the Biblical sense. I was amazed at Doctor Gene's vast knowledge, kindness, and caring. Doc, thank you for making my life bearable for 25 years ..... rest in peace....

It was wonderful to see Eugene at the 50th grade school reunion. Eugene always had a friendly smile and warm hand shake. Ted loved to recall the times they spent at the farm. He'll be missed.

Depend on Him at all times...before Him pour out the pain that's within. God, is a refuge for us. (Ps. 62:8)

Our family has known "Doc" since 1981. Whether it was a medical visit or a friendly stop to chat, he always made us feel comfortable to talk about anything that came to mind, and nine times out of ten, it included his interests in railways. Richmond Round Up Days were special when he was in an Engineer outfit giving rides to the public on his trains along his property. He was happy getting settled in his new home and always concerned about his cats. His intense knowledge in the medical profession was always interesting. I will miss his friendly smile and caring ways, the sound of the diesel truck driving past the house. You are "Home" now Doc. The Lord is with you. God Bless.

Dr. Hoffmann was always a kind and very knowledgeable man. Some of the guys who came to Mr. Sitkas when I worked I really enjoyed seeing and waiting on, he was one of them. Rest in peace and God bless you!

Very nice man - always concerned and asked about family members he hadn't seen in a while. We owe our physical well-being to Dr. Hoffmann's help.

I'll always remember Cousin Gene as medically adept and astute. I always looked forward to seeing him at family functions,as a simple conversation evolved into a learning experience; whether it be the rail industry,world history, or medicine.

Doc was a lovely man who helped four generations of our family through assorted back, neck, knee and other ailments. It was always a treat to see him share his love of trains with others. We will miss him.
