Obituary for Bernice J. Hoffman (Fuller)
LOUDONVILLE - Bernice J. (Fuller) Hoffman, 90 years old of Loudonville, passed away Saturday December 14, 2019 at the Our Lady of Mercy Life Center after a long illness. She was the widow of Edward J. Hoffman Sr.
Born in Ilion, NY, she was the daughter of the late James and Carla Mae Fuller. A graduate of Gilboa High School, she had been a resident of Loudonville NY since 1949. She was a member of the Bethany Presbyterian Church, Menands, where she was a member and elder of the Session. Mrs. Hoffman was active in the church's United Presbyterian Women group and worked on many church dinners and bazaars.
She is survived by her children, Mary C. (Thomas) Scaligeri of East Greenbush, Eileen S. Nall of Greenwich, James T. (Lisa) Hoffman of Latham, and Thomas E. (Anne) Hoffman of Colonie and stepson Edward J. (Nancy) Hoffman Jr. of Colonie; her brother Gary (Paqui) Fuller of Tennessee, and several grandchildren, great grandchildren and great, great grandchildren. She was predeceased by her brothers Leon and Jack, and her granddaughter Jennifer Nall.
Bernice leaves behind many others who will always remember her as a great friend and someone who always put the needs of others before her own. Bernice was a caregiver for most of her adult life. In addition to caring for her own children at home, she was there to selflessly care for her aunt, her parents, husband and many others when they needed her most. One of her finest attributes was her great sense of humor, always quick to laugh and bring laughter to others.
The family would like to extend its gratitude to the wonderful people at the Loudonville Assisted Living Residence and Our Lady of Mercy Life Center in Guilderland for all of their kindness and caring for our mom.
Friends and relatives are invited to visit Wednesday December 18, 4 to 7 p.m. at the Bowen & Parker Bros. Funeral Home, 97 Old Loudon Road, Latham.
