Sarah Judith Hoffman

Sarah Judith Hoffman, 28, of Wadsworth, Ohio, entered into the presence of Jesus in the early hours of March 8, 2025.
Sarah was born on January 9th in Akron, Ohio, to Jeffrey and Roberta Hoffman. From an early age, Sarah showed tenacious spirit, determination, and a strong will. These qualities naturally lent themselves well to her passion for softball. Her love for the sport carried her through years playing for Wadsworth High School, where she graduated in 2015. It's no surprise that she excelled in her next chapter of life, playing softball at the collegiate level in Adrian, Michigan. In 2017, Sarah transferred to the University of Akron, where she graduated with a Bachelor of Business Administration, focusing on Marketing Management. Her work ethic and intellect were evident in how quickly she found success in her career as a Marketing Specialist, gaining recognition for her transformations in the department.
Sarah met every challenge with resilience, unwavering strength, and an incredible sense of humor. She put others first and made sure her people were taken care of, carrying their burdens with a remarkable grace. But beyond her spirit and compassion, she was the life of every room she walked into. Sarah had a rare gift for turning the most mundane moments into the fondest memories. She was quick-witted, effortlessly hilarious, and brought levity that will be dearly missed. She was intelligent, selfless, adventurous, beautiful, and funny – everything you could hope for in a friend, a daughter, a niece, and a cousin.
Sarah was an incredible daughter. Her love for her mother shaped who she was. Sarah was her father's world, his greatest joy, and the light of his life. She enjoyed sharing her life with Kyle, who loved her unconditionally, and she had a deep love for their rescue dogs, Millie and Cooper, and her cat Lemur. Sarah was also an amazing village for the young moms in her life, loving their babies as her own, and always offering extra support. She wasn't just loved, she was cherished. Her generosity wasn't just in the things she did for others, it was in the way she cared, fully and without hesitation. Her presence filled each room with an energy that made life more enjoyable, and her absence leaves a space in our hearts that will be a constant reminder of how much she gave us. Words will never fully capture the incredible human she was, but for anyone who was lucky enough to have Sarah in their life, her love and laughter will live on.
Sarah is survived by her parents, Jeffrey Hoffman and Roberta Hoffman, her Gramma Judy Rader, many aunts and uncles who loved her dearly, and numerous cousins with whom she mostly managed to stay out of trouble. She was preceded in death by her cousin, David Hoffman, and her grandparents, Shirley and Harold Hoffman.
Visitation will be held at Hilliard-Rospert Funeral Home – Wadsworth on Saturday March 15 from 1:00-3:00 p.m., with service immediately following at 3:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, you may honor Sarah's beautiful life with a donation to your local humane society or animal rescue shelter.
