“Feisty” would be a word best used to describe her adult years. Those who knew her appreciated that she was contrary to instruction or conventions–and a lot of fun! She adored cars, coffeehouses, fabrics, friends and a good party.

Annamarie developed a “Passion for Fashion” at an early age. She loved colorful textiles and began clothing design in the 1970s. She was a skilled couturier and sold her own custom line of clothing.

She leaves behind her daughters Juli Hofmann (Joel Leker) and Lori Hofmann-Lurz (Victor Lurz), Her Grandchildren Eva Leker-Gordon, Forest Lurz, Isaac Leker and Violet Lurz, and her great grandchildren Finn and Thea Gordon.

She was preceded in death by her parents, siblings, and former husband, Don Hofmann.

The family would like to extend their warm appreciation to her caregiver Michelle Rhyans and Horace Mercurio for the community the built at Coffee Mia Cafe in Marina.
