Fred was born in Ottawa, Kan., Nov. 28, 1944. During his childhood, he moved to Nebraska, which became his true home state, and was raised by his grandparents, Oscar and Jenny Meyer. Fred graduated from Omaha Tech High School in 1962. He worked for 25 years as manager at the Hinky Dinky Grocery Store and seven years at Loziers.

Fred enjoyed spending time with his family, whom he loved very much. He enjoyed watching Nebraska Volleyball and Football, and he especially enjoyed the time he spent hunting and fishing with his son, Douglas.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made in Fred Hoffman’s name to Chase County Schools, Imperial, or Laurel-Concord-Coleridge School, Laurel.

Liewer Funeral Home, Imperial, has been entrusted with the arrangements.
