Stefan Hofmaenner Obituary

In Loving Memory of Stefan Hofmaenner, November 18, 1952 - February 28, 2024.

Stefan Hofmaenner, born on November 18, 1952, in Rorschach, Switzerland, peacefully passed away on February 28, 2024, in Midlothian, Virginia, after bravely facing Parkinson's disease.

A devoted member of the New Apostolic Church, Stefan found solace and purpose in his faith. In retirement, he and his beloved wife, Edith, explored the vast landscapes of North America in their RV, creating cherished memories along the way. In his youth, Stefan enjoyed the freedom of the open sea, indulging his passion for sailing.

Stefan is survived by his loving wife, Edith Hofmaenner, and their sons, Eric and Kevin Hofmaenner. He is also remembered fondly by his siblings, Thomas and Katharina Hofmaenner.

Friends and family are invited to celebrate Stefan's life at a funeral service to be held at the New Apostolic Church, 2606 W City Point Road, Hopewell, VA 23860, on Saturday, March 16, 2024, at 11:00 AM.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations to be made in Stefan's memory to Power Over The Parkinson's Foundation at https://www.poweroverpd.org/donations.

May Stefan's spirit of adventure and unwavering faith continue to inspire us all. He will be deeply missed and forever remembered in our hearts.

My name is Randy Riggs and I'm so sorry to hear of Stefan's passing! I worked with Stefan at ABB in the early 1990's. I always admired Stefan's work ethic, his composure under pressure and his dry sense of humor. My heartfelt condolences to his family.
