Roy Albert Hofer

Roy and Louise Hofer, ages 98 and 93, married for 67 years, passed away on November 18 and August 13. They were lifelong residents of Washington County. Roy was co-owner of Hillsboro implement Co., a John Deere and Caterpillar dealership. His passion in life was farm machinery of any kind and he pursued this until just a few days before his death.
Louise worked for Meier and Frank for 50 years. She worked in the payroll department and was the consummate Meier & Franker during the store's golden years. Louise was killed by an automobile in August and Roy died of a broken heart in November.
A meeting will be held at the West Union School cafeteria on Saturday, Dec 3 at 12 noon to remember Roy and Louise.
