Dear JESUS our lord and savior please accept John into your fathers house, I humbily pray.
I worked directly with John and saw every day the joy he bought to his job.
Johns' love of his family and the Yankees was legendary.
We lost a good friend, but heaven gained a good man.
Until we meet again, may you walk with GOD. Amen

To the Hoffman Family,

On behalf of the WHPD- Retired Officers Association we are so sorry to hear of Johns passing. All of the members had the pleasure of working with Johnny at one time or another and he was always happy and ready to help anyway he could. He was always ready to talk sports and no one knew more about the Yankees than Johnny.
We always enjoyed seeing him at our lunch once a month and we will miss him. Rest in peace Johnny Boy. All your Brothers and Sisters from WHPD-ROA.
