LIFETIMES: Preston son became one of Guelph's most admired citizens

Fred Hoffman Born: June 22, 1929, in CambridgeDied: April 10, 2017, of heart-related illness


This Thursday, Fred Hoffman's family will receive a posthumous award from the City of Guelph's mayor for the retired optometrist's 63 years of service in the Guelph Kiwanis Club.

The award also recognizes the Kiwanis Christmas Luncheon that Fred started more than 30 years ago.

The annual event brings together 500 students from Upper Grand District School Board's developmental disabilities class - youth who look forward to an event that is all about them, all about making their day special.

Last year, the school board recognized Fred's volunteer work with an Everyday Hero Award.

Fred was a people person, he wanted to help and he loved to be recognized, which is not to say he did the work for pats on the back. Quite the contrary. Fred had a kind heart and just couldn't help himself when he thought there was any need in the community.

The mayor's award would have been a big deal for Fred.

"Dad would have loved this," said Tony Hoffman, one of his four children. "He was really sociable. He wanted to have people around and wanted to bring people together.

"If a couple of people happened to drop by, he'd turn that into a bigger event."

Fred was born in the Cambridge village of Preston, an only child.

His mother was a nurse, his dad worked in a local plant and after graduating from Preston High School, Fred worked for a local jeweller who had some optical equipment in the shop. This intrigued Fred and set him on a path to become an optometrist.....

Fred graduated from the University of Toronto's School of Optometry in 1952, opened a small practice in downtown Kitchener then, discouraged by a slow start, decided to pull up roots and head to Guelph where he went into partnership with another optometrist....

Shirley said her husband was a bit of a workaholic but he always made time for his volunteer events and of course for family.

The couple had met at a gas station behind Fred's office. Shirley laughs at the memory of this perhaps not so romantic location.

Shirley, a medical doctor, was working at Homewood at the time but after they married in 1957, the couple purchased a house on Woolwich Street where she maintained a small medical practice for about 20 years.

Shirley also spoke of his lifetime membership with the Presbyterian Church where he devoted considerable time.

"It was an important part of his life," she said.
