Randall A. Hoffman, 65, of Churubusco, passed away unexpectedly on January 24, 2026, in Churubusco.
He was born on February 20, 1960, in Kendallville, to the late George and Betty (Fulk) Hoffman, and was a cherished resident of Churubusco throughout his life.
Randy was a dedicated plumber and well driller, working for Gordon & Sloffer for two generations of ownership. He was known for his strong work ethic and his unwavering commitment to his craft. While he pursued his career, he was also an ardent member of the Sons of the Churubusco American Legion and the Churubusco VFW, where he actively supported the community's veterans. His generous spirit and willingness to lend a hand will be fondly remembered by many.
A man of great character, Randy was known for his ornery sense of humor and his love for good company. He enjoyed drinking beer, farming, and sharing stories with friends and family, always bringing joy and laughter to those around him.
Randy is survived by his son, Brandon Hoffman; his daughter, Brandi (Adam) Dammeyer; his brother, Brian Hoffman; his sisters, Cindy (David) Fulk and Sherri Gaff; and his three grandchildren, Angelo Ianucilli, Levi Dammeyer, and Logan Dammeyer.
In addition to his parents, Randy was preceded in death by a sister, Candice Hoffman, and a brother, Jeffery Hoffman.
