We have had the pleasure and honor of knowing Lathrop since 1995, the year I joined Honda and over time we got to know Lathrop, Peter and Dorothy
What a treat!
Many things will be said about Lathrop. I will simply add that I found him to be a man of great character, had lots of common sense, did not have much time for phony's
and was a man who believed in doing the "The right thing" during his life.
They "broke the mold" with Lathrop, and we are better in our journey for knowing him.
Much love and respect,
Mike & Nancy Lynch

A wonderful example to all. A generous supporter of many institutions in Monrovia, including the Police Department. An outstanding businessman. He will be dearly missed. God bless his family at this difficult time.

Wow!! What a life well lived and what an incredible legacy he has created! I am very fortunate to have met Mr. and Mrs. Hoffman and to have experienced their goodness and generosity. His genuine warmth and compassion lives on in his beautiful family. I am blessed to consider his daughter, Patty, to be one of my dearest friends. Thank you, Mr. Hoffman, for your wholehearted example of how to live life to the fullest and how to treat others with respect and kindness. I wish you all peace and many joyful memories.

What a giant of a man. It was an honor to know him, and to have worked with him so many years ago. I learned a lot about the car business from his insights and humor. All the best and my condolances to his lovely family.
