MOUNT VERNON – Glendene V. Hoffman, 106, a lifelong resident of Mount Vernon, passed away Tuesday July 12, 2022, at Country Court. She was born June 29, 1916, the daughter of Germaine and Pearl (Cline) Lambillotte.
Glendene was a seamstress, gardener and wonderful homemaker. She and her husband, Claude, were married for over 60 years before his death. Glendene was known for her Christmas sugar cookies and family recipe for galettes passed down from her mother; she and her father competed each summer to raise the best and largest tomatoes in their gardens. Her close circle of friends met for mid-morning coffee on a regular basis. In later years, she became a regular at the Southside Diner on South Main Street.

John Lambillotte, Duane Lambillotte, and Donald Lambillotte; her sisters Valjean Knerr and Mable Thomas; brothers-in-law Charles G. “Tobe” Knerr and J.F. “Tommy” Thomas; and sisters-in-law Betty (Clupper) Lambillotte and Anna (White) Lambillotte; and nephew J.D.
