In Memory of
Ronald Eric Hoffman, Sr.
11/2/1965 – 2/27/2025

It is with deep sorrow that the Montgomery County Precinct 2 offices of Commissioner Charlie Riley announce the passing of Ronald Eric Hoffman, Sr. We are at a loss for words to convey the immense sadness and grief that weighs heavily on our hearts and minds. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends during this difficult time. We are grateful to them for sharing Eric with us, as he developed to become an invaluable member of our offices. Commissioner Riley expressed, “Eric was a highly skilled equipment operator whose talent was unparalleled. He made a positive difference for all of Montgomery County, especially in Precinct 2.”
He began working on the ground crew graduating to become a superior Gradall Operator leading to his promotion as Drainage Supervisor/Senior Foreman. His skill level was beyond reproach, which was recognized for him to rise in the ranks of Precinct 2. He served Montgomery County Precinct 2 for nearly 15 years along with being an active Captain in the Magnolia Fire Department. Eric had a quick wit and a knack for bringing laughter to those around him. His calm and sensitive demeanor allowed him to maintain control in any situation. His services for the community often meant he was called out to provide emergency assistance day or night. We were blessed to have had someone with his skill level and insight into management so committed to not only keep performing at his best but to also making the work shine.
