Richard D. Hoover

My days at Pendleton High School were made better for having known Mr. Hoover. He always had a smile and a kind word to say. He was an asset to the teaching community. My thoughts go out to his family.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

Dear Mrs. Hoover, We are sorry to learn of Dick's passing. He was always an upbeat individual and full of stories. We enjoyed visiting with him each year at one of the Union City alumni reunions. Our heartfelt condolences to you and your family.

Monty and Family
Sorry to hear of your and our loss. Will allways remember the great smile and all the good advice Mr. Hoover gave me in school. I think we were all very lucky to grow up with great parents and the great people in Pendleton. Your Dad was at the top of the list.

Vivian, Monte & Family....Our Hearts go out to you for your loss of a well known man and teacher. He was one of the Best around. May God Bless You and Watch over you. You are in our Prayers....

I can just barely remember Mr. Hoover, although my father, Willie Satkamp will remember him well. We sympathize with you over your loss and thank you for sharing Dick with the children of this community. Willie is 91 and now living with us in Union City. He remembers the past well and talks fondly of his teaching days. Our prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. May God bless you richly.

To the Hoover family,
I send my deepest sympathy to you at this time of loss. Mr. Hoover was so faithful to our class of 1955 at Union City West Side High School. He regularly attended our reunions, shared memories with great humor, and was interested in our lives presently. I was a very good student in high school and was very upset that my first term Beginning Typing grade was below an "A". He was pleasantly firm and encouraged me to keep working to improve. I will remember him as a person of integrity and good humor. May you feel God's comfort now and in the future.

Sorry to learn of Dick's passing. I always enjoyed running to him around town. He always had a story to tell or an amusing memory to share. He was a special person that wil be missed. God bless your family in these difficult times.

Dear Sis, Amy, Monty and all. I just learned of Dick's passing late last night and have been trying to find out arrangements this morning. I am so sorry to loose such a great guy. He was always the big teaser when I was around and I loved it. I am thinking and praying for you all now and am so sorry not to be there for you. I love you all very much. Beverly

Mr. Hoover may or may not have remembered me from school days...but I certainly remember him and always will. Mr. Hoover was a "Class Act" and will be remembered and missed by many. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.

Mrs. Hoover, Monty, Amy & family. We were so sorry to read of the passing of Mr. Hoover. He was a very kind and caring man and could always put a smile on my face. Our deepest condolences go out to your family.

Mont, Amy, and Mrs. Hoover - Gee it seems like only yesterday that Mr. Hoover was roaming the halls of PHS and PHHS expressing his wit and humor. My Wife and I always loved him and respected his knowledge. I want to express our condolences and true sorrow after reading today of his passing.

Mrs.Hoover,
I am so sorry about the passing of Mr.Hoover. He was not only a fine teacher but a dear friend that will live in my heart forever. God Bless you and your family during your time of grief.

To the Hoover Family,
I was saddened to learn of Mr. Hoover's passing. As an educator and guidance counselor, he touched countless students' lives at Pendleton and Pendleton Heights High Schools. But it was his wit, charm, and insight that I recall making the rigors of high school life so much easier.
With heartfelt condolences,
