Jeanette Hoy—5/1/2023

With heavy hearts, we mourn the passing of a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Jeanette Hoy. She passed away peacefully on May 1, 2023, at the age of 88, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, generosity, and unwavering faith.

Jeanette was born on May 3, 1934, in Clifton Heights to the late Tillie Risko (Hrysko) and Harry Mucha. She lived a fulfilling life, dedicated to her family, friends, and church. Jeanette was a woman with a heart of gold, known for her selflessness, empathy, and unwavering devotion.

Jeanette leaves behind a legacy of love and compassion, and she will be deeply missed by her loving children Eileen (Philip) Barndt, Jack (Carol) Hoy, Kathleen Hoy, and Edward (Laura) Hoy and their daughter Susie Hoy (Jason DePina). She was an adored GramNette to Samantha Grosse, Victoria Barndt, John Hoy (Michelle Money), Eddie Hoy, John Luke “Jack” Widman (Elena Garcia), Matt Hoy, Susie Hoy (Jason DePina), Caroline Hoy, and a proud great-grandmother to Kaylee Rose Hoy. Jeanette is also survived by her siblings Eleanor Scott, Joanne Fisher, Paul Mucha, many nieces, nephews, and friends.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Jack Hoy, granddaughter, Samantha Grosse, and her siblings Mary Pecko, Lilian Pecko, and Harry Mucha. Although she has left us, Jeanette’s spirit will continue to live on through the many lives she touched.

Jeanette’s unwavering devotion to her community was evident in her active membership at St. Stanislaus Parish since 1971. As a mother, she generously volunteered her time at her children’s schools, and as a grandmother she spent her weekdays providing childcare. Jeanette and her beloved husband Jack also cherished their winters in Bradenton, Florida. In her leisure time, she was an avid Phillies fan. She loved playing pinochle with her lifelong friends Maxine, Betty and Jane. In her younger years she enjoyed bowling. Her warm smile, kind heart, and gentle spirit endeared her to all who knew her, and her absence will be keenly felt.
