Angela Yoder Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by McPherson Funeral Services, Inc. - Milford on Dec. 30, 2025.
Angela Marie Yoder, known affectionately by her loved ones as Angie or Annie, was a beacon of light in this world, radiating an infectious warmth that touched everyone she met. She was born on the 1st of July, 1971, in Dover, DE, USA. A sprightly individual, her high-spirited nature was evident from an early age and was carried with her throughout her life. Angela was a loving mother, a spirited baker, a witty friend, and a compassionate soul. As Maya Angelou once said, "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." Angela Yoder lived by this philosophy, impacting the lives of everyone fortunate enough to cross paths with her.

In her professional life, Angela served as a dedicated attendant in the hotel services industry for 15 years. Her dedication, humor, and strong work ethic made her a beloved figure amongst her colleagues. However, her true passion lay in the heart of her home; in the kitchen, where she loved to bake and decorate cakes. There was no occasion too small for one of Angie's delightful creations. Her cakes were a testament to her creativity and love, bringing joy to her family and friends alike. Angela's most treasured moments were those spent with her children and grandchildren. Her love for them was boundless, and they were the center of her world. Her beautiful soul was mirrored in her radiant smile and her contagious laugh, which she used generously to bring laughter into the lives of others.

Angela is survived by her mother, Peggy Hoeflich, her daughter Elizabeth Yoder, and her sons, David Dix, Mikey Dix and his wife Manda and Jacob Yoder, her siblings Chrissy Hoeflich, BJ Hoeflich and Monica Hoeflich. She was preceded in death by her father, David Ford. Each one of them holds a piece of Angela's spirited personality, loving heart, witty charm, and compassionate nature. They, along with everyone else whose lives were touched by Angela, will continue to honor her memory. As Helen Keller profoundly said, "What we once enjoyed and deeply loved we can never lose, for all that we love deeply becomes part of us."

We invite you to share your memories of Angela, to laugh, to cry, and to celebrate the remarkable woman she was. Please upload your favorite photos and stories to the memorial page, contributing to the rich tapestry of Angela's life that will continue to be celebrated and remembered.
