Barbara Hoffman
October 29, 1953 – March 7, 2025
Barbara Jean (Baker) Hoffman was called to Heaven on March 7, 2025 in Sequim, WA. She passed in the comfort of her own home surrounded by family. She was born October 29, 1953 to Fred and Mildred Baker in Kodiak, AK.
In 1955 Barb’s family moved from Alaska to Colorado where they spent 13 years before finally settling in Washington in 1968. Barb dedicated much of her time to the Dungeness Community Church, as well as countless handouts through her and her brothers company to help feed the community. If you asked Barb what she was most proud of, she would say her granddaughters. She was a devoted and loving grandmother.
She is survived by her brother David Baker, sons Jason (Kendra) Hoffman, and Nathan (Carrie) Hoffman, as well as four granddaughters, nieces, nephews, and cousins.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in honor of Barb to Dungeness Community Church. A small celebration of life for family will be held at a later date.
Barb will ultimately come to rest somewhere beautiful, where she can see the sunrise and the sunset.
“Please know that all is well and that I am with Christ in Heaven.” – Barbara Hoffman.

Devin Loving
April 14, 1964 – April 25, 2025
There will be no services for Devin Loving who died at his home in Sequim, WA on April 25, 2025. He was born Devin Errol Loving on April 14, 1964 at Dover AFB, Delaware. He was the second son of Errol Keith and Beverley Bryce (Jost) Loving.
When Devin was two weeks old, the family moved to Ewa Beach, Hawaii. Being raised in a military family, Devin lived in many places. From Hawaii, his family moved to Mount Vernon and then to Lakewood, WA; Liverpool, NY; Newport News, VA; and Fairfield CA. He graduated from Armijo High School in Fairfield, CA in 1982. Devin attended Solano Community College near Fairfield, CA; Umpqua Community College near Roseburg, Oregon and California State University at Sacramento majoring in Liberal Arts.
Devin worked at various jobs in California, Nevada, Oregon and Washington. He moved to Sequim in 2006. His latest job was as a caregiver for a local company. He enjoyed his clients very much and they appreciated his kind attention.
According to a friend, James Tobitt, “Devin went from adventure to adventure. He is probably one of the most interesting people I’ve ever met, and the closest thing to a real pirate I’ll ever know. Between his razor sharp wit, twisted humor, rugged individualism, and multiple passions, I could barely keep up with him. But he was never boring. He certainly had his demons, but his heart was in everything he did.”
Devin was predeceased by his grandparents, Clarence and Corwin Loving and Jess and Jenny Jost; his uncle Michael Jost and his four-legged, wet-nosed companions, Tom-Tom and Augie Doggie.
Devin is survived by his parents of Sequim, WA; his brother and sister-in-law, Corbett and Juli Loving of Clovis, CA; sister and brother-in-law, Joanna Loving-Belyea and David Belyea of Springfield, OR; nephew, Colton Loving of Gilbert, AZ; nephew and niece-in-law, Caleb and Sarah Loving of Clovis, CA; nephew, Jules Belyea of Boise, ID; aunt and uncle, Kathryn and William Read and cousins, Bryce and Kevin Read, all of Bellingham, WA.
