      Elver Fay Hoard died April 10, 2008. Age 73, passed peacefully from his home in Yuma, Arizona to his heavenly home and into the arms of Jesus on Thursday, April 10, 2008.

      He was born in Hugoton, Kansas and moved to Oregon with his family as a young boy of three. He lived in several cities while in Oregon, before moving to Yuma, Arizona in 1994 where he and his wife Nancy have made their home and built many wonderful friendships. After graduating from Dayton High School in 1952, Elver spent 35 years working for the phone company. He retired in 1986 as Central Office Supervisor in Roseburg, Oregon, ending a successful career with the telephone company. While in "retirement" he began a small engine repair business and donated time and talent to Sunrise Enterprises as well as serving his community through various volunteer activities.

His seven grandchildren, Erin, Stephen, Bryce, Alex, Kelsey, Morgan and Timothy and great granddaughter, Marie will miss hearing him call them by individual and unique nicknames. He is preceded in death by his wife, of 35 years, Donna Walther Hoard of Dayton, Oregon; his son, Jeffery Clyde Hoard of San Francisco, California; his parents, Clyde and Verla Hoard of Salem, Oregon; his sister, Clydine Case of Albany, Oregon; and his brother, Edgar Verl Hoard of Salem, Oregon.
