Dorothy Anderson Hoffmann, 90, was welcomed into the arms of her Savior on Wednesday, Jan. 20, 2016.
Dorothy was born Nov. 22, 1925, in Cisco. She was the second of two children of Eldon Dean Anderson and Myrtie Hildreth Anderson. Dorothy was raised in Cisco, where she graduated from Cisco High School. She attended the University of Texas at Austin and graduated from Texas Tech University with a degree in home economics. In addition to school, she was a member of the San Souci Social Club (Kappa Alpha Theta) and the Home Economics Club. After college, she taught school in Brownfield. On Jan. 27, 1949, she married the love of her life, W.H. "Bill" Hoffmann Sr. They made their home in Eastland, where they raised three children. Dorothy was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, sister and friend. She lived life to the fullest and was happiest when surrounded by her family and friends. Her love of the Lord was evident in everything she did, and it served to light her path on this earth. While living in Eastland, she was actively involved in First United Methodist Church of Eastland, and later while living in Fort Worth, Christ Chapel Bible Church. She had non-stop energy and loved to swim, paint, sculpt, cook and shop. Surpassing her incredible outward qualities, her true inward beauty and loving spirit illuminated every aspect of her life and put smiles on everyone who came in contact with her. Dorothy leaves behind her family, who will always remember her for her steadfast faith in our heavenly Father and the courage and grace she displayed throughout her life. She will always serve as an inspiring example of a godly woman who lived her life for Christ.
Dorothy was preceded in death by her parents; her brother, Eldon Dean Anderson; and her husband, W.H. "Bill" Hoffmann Sr.

"Bill" Hoffmann Jr. of Eastland; daughter, Kay Swanson and husband, Johnny, of Fort Worth; daughter, Ginger Smith and husband, Jett, of Fort Worth; grandsons, Ryan Swanson, Matthew Swanson and Dillon Smith; granddaughter, Summer Smith; great-grandchildren, Blake and Brook Swanson; nephews, Mike Anderson of Cisco and David Anderson of Dallas; nephew, C.W.
