Gary W. Hoffmann, 67, of Dyersville, Iowa, passed away Sunday, April 11, 2021, at MercyOne in Dubuque, Iowa. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
Gary was born Dec. 1, 1953, in Manchester, Iowa, the son of Clarence J. and Odeil (Urbain) Hoffmann. Gary was raised on the home farm just north of Earlville.

He enjoyed his free time, fishing, riding his Harley and just being outdoors. He loved spending time with his family, especially a Saturday ride on the Harley with Sally.
Gary is survived by his significant other, Sally Staveley; and her daughter, Sara Soto; two brothers, John (Linda) Hoffmann of Earlville and Carl Hoffmann of Cedar Rapids; in-laws, Paul (Sue) Taylor of Zwingle and Ann Wood of Mason City; and several nieces and nephews.
