Laurie was born in Passaic, NJ as the second child to Frank and Florence Hoffman. She grew up in Passaic and Elmwood Park and later lived in Ramsey. She graduated from Elmwood Park High School. In her free time Laurie loved reading science fiction, learning about history, and watching Doctor Who.
Laurie served over 40 years for the Bergen County Office of Education. She was a hard worker who was honored by the county administration for her dedication to the educators and aspiring educators in Bergen County. Laurie’s knowledge of the teacher certification process was appreciated by all and her expertise will be sorely missed.
Laurie is survived by her brother, Anthony; two nieces, Lisa Hoffman of Little Ferry and Jessica Hoffman of Lincoln Park; one nephew, Michael Hoffman of Wayne; her uncle, Joseph Szewczyk of Clifton; and several loving cousins. She was predeceased by her father, Frank Hoffman, and her mother, Florence Hoffman.
