Mr. Shoff touched so many lives and helped us to be better adults. I still remember his passion for coaching wrestling.

We are so very sorry to learn of Mr. Shoff's passing. He was our superintendent in Hyannis while my husband was on the school board and we thought highly of him. We've kept in touch through the years via Christmas cards. Our deepest condolences to all of you.
