Amy L. Hoover

Amy L. Hoover, 53, passed away Sunday, Sept. 15, 2019, at Geisinger Medical Center in Danville.

She was born Feb. 25, 1966, in Lewistown, to Harold and Janet (Hettinger) Penepacker.

She was a 1984 graduate of Kish High School and she married Larry L. Hoover May 18, 1985, at Milroy CMA Church. She worked at Watsons Optical as an executive assistant for 28 years.

Amy was loved by all and a great friend to many. She enjoyed going on cruises and traveling to the Outer Banks with her best friend and partner in crime, Larry. Amy was considered a Black Friday shopping expert and a perfectionist in everything she did. If you needed something, you went to Amy, whether it was planning a wedding, baby shower or a party. She also was involved in organizing several Relay for Life benefits. When she wasn’t enjoying the company of her friends, she was busy spoiling her grandchildren.

She is preceded in death by her parents, Harold and Janet. She is survived by: her husband, Larry; son Jason and wife, Tanya, of Milroy; grandchildren, Grace and Lucas; her sister, Lisa and husband, Steve Watson, of Reedsville, and their sons, Evan and Ethan; her brother, Clayton and wife, Sheila, of Milroy, and their daughter, Amber; as well as many other brothers and sisters-in-law, and many nieces and nephews.

A viewing will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 18, at Milroy CMA Church. The funeral will be held at 10 a.m. Thursday, Sept. 19, also at Milroy CMA Church. Interment will follow at Church Hill Cemetery. There will be a meal provided by the church following the funeral.

In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the Janet Weis Children’s Hospital, 100 N. Academy Ave., Danville, PA 17822, in Amy’s name in support of her granddaughter, Grace.
