Douglas W. Hopple, Sr., 65, passed away on December 28, 2024, in Williamsport.  Born on June 3, 1959, in Jersey Shore, to the late James L. Hopple and Maxine (Pepperman) Allen.  Douglas spent a lifetime surrounded by the beauty and serenity of Pennsylvania, a place he called home.

Douglas was a man of many passions, with family at the heart of everything he did.  He cherished every moment spent with his beloved grandchildren, Alayna, Kendall, and Zane, who brought immense joy to his life.  In his spare time, Douglas enjoyed tinkering with his model trains, a pastime that reflected his meticulous nature and love for intricate details.  An avid outdoorsman, he found peace in hunting and fishing, and nothing thrilled him more than exploring trails on his ATV or snowmachine.

Douglas is preceded in death by his father, James L. Hopple, and stepfather, Roland Allen.  Douglas is survived by his devoted wife, Deborah K. Hopple; his two sons, Douglas W. Hopple, Jr. and Jason (Megan Derrick) Hopple; and three grandchildren, Alayna Hopple, Kendall Hopple, and Zane Hopple.  He leaves behind a legacy also cherished by his siblings, Michael (Nora) Hopple, Jeffrey (Glenda) Hopple, David (Bobbiemarie) Allen, Roland Allen, Sandra (Jason) Duke, and Jessica (Michael) Letterman.

A memorial service in honor of Douglas's life will be held at the Woodward Township Volunteer Fire Company, 4147 N Rte 220 Hwy, Linden, PA 17744 on Wednesday, January 1st, 2025.  Services will commence at 12:00 P.M., inviting all who knew him to celebrate his life.
