Juliana R. Laskowski-Hoffman

Juliana R. Laskowski Hoffman, 53, of Boiling Springs, PA, passed away peacefully on January 7, 2025, after a courageous battle with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer surrounded by family. Born on July 7, 1971, born in Scranton, PA, to Rodion R. Laskowski and Anne Laskowski, Juliana left a profound impact on all who knew her.

A devoted mother, Juliana’s family meant everything to her. Affectionately known as "Ju Ju" she showed unwavering love and care for her husband of 30 years, Glen (Serge) "Horse" Hoffman; her sons, Damian Mckenzie, Nicholas and Jordan Hoffman; and her daughters, Mikhaila and Savanna Hoffman. Many young people who faced various struggles in life knew her simply as "Momma," as she opened her heart and home to those in need, providing comfort and support to countless individuals.

Juliana was an adventurous spirit who loved camping, riding motorcycles with her husband, and attending live music festivals. She embraced life fully, always seeking fun and new experiences with her loved ones.

A proud graduate of Franklin County Career and Technology Center, Juliana earned her degree and graduated at the top of her class; showcasing her dedication and hard work. She channeled that passion into her career as an LPN, most recently as Lead Nurse Manager at the Forrest Park Rehabilitation Center, where she cherished her co-workers and her patients. She also managed the BRICK Restaurant in Carlisle, relishing the relationships she built with her regular patrons.

Her commitment to service extended beyond her career; Juliana was a lifelong member of the Three Pillars of Orthodoxy Church, where she volunteered her time and resources to support her community, embodying a spirit of compassion.

Juliana was preceded in death by her dear father, Protopresbyter Rodion F. Laskowski. The family wishes to express their heartfelt gratitude to the staff at Penn State Hershey Medical Center for their loving care and professionalism throughout Juliana’s treatment, providing comfort during her difficult journey. The family would especially like to thank Dr. Polimera for her outstanding care, dedication and commitment to not only Julie but her entire family.

Juliana’s warmth, kindness, and dedication to her family, friends, and her community will be deeply missed by all who knew her. A visitation will be held on Thursday, January 9th at 6 pm. Funeral will be held on Friday, January 10th at 10:30 am with interment immediate following. Both services will be held at the Pillars of Orthodoxy Church, 350 West Old York Road, Carlisle. Juliana R. Laskowski Hoffman remains forever in our hearts, and her legacy of love and service will continue to inspire all who were fortunate enough to know her.
