Lucille Hoffer
Resident of the Month
Lucille Hoffer was born Oct. 24,
1931, in Eminence, Mo., to Wes and
Pearl Sconce. Lucille was the young-
est of seven children with five broth-
ers and one sister. Lucille graduated
from Eminence High School in 1949.
She attended Missouri Baptist College
and Southwest Missouri State Univer-
sity majoring in education.
Lucille met the love of her life,
Wayne Hoffer, at church and the two
were soon married in 1953. Wayne
worked at the county extension office
and Lucille taught at a rural school.
In 1958, the couple moved to a
farm in Bolivar where they raised
chickens. They farmed for several
years raising over 15,000 chickens
every 10 weeks. Wayne would later
work as a teacher at Morrisville and
Lucille worked as an administrative
assistant in the Bolivar High School
principal office for 27 years. The cou-
ple were blessed with a son, Nathan
Hoffer, of Bolivar.
Lucille is a member of Mt. Olive
Baptist Church and has enjoyed
teaching Sunday school and being a
choir member. From the age of 15,
she has always been actively involved
in her church activities. Other hobbies
have included playing cards and
traveling 39 of the 50 states with
Wayne.
She is a member of the Missouri
Retired Teachers Association.
Lucille and Wayne were
married for a wonderful 60 years
when he passed away in 2013.
Lucille moved to BRCC in
2017. She enjoys spending time
with her family, including her
grandson, Silas, and granddaugh-
ter, Bonnie, and her husband,
John Shikles.
Lucille also enjoys playing
bingo and visiting with her many
friends. “ I am so thankful for a
nice place to live and lots of
friends,” said Lucille.
Thank you, Lucille, for shar-
ing your story with us. We are
blessed you are a part of the
BRCC family.
