Patricia L. De Leaon

Rod Hoffer was raised in rural South Dakota. He has been an over the road truck driver for over 35 years, he hauls refrigerated products across the USA. Thirty-seven years ago he married Judy, his high school sweetheart. They were blessed with two beautiful daughters who on turn blessed them with five beautiful grandchildren Tyler, Shaylin, Pryce, Emma and Ava. Having a great imagination and the love of a good book he decided to write his own stories involving his own grandchildren there by giving them something to remember him by. It was very rewarding and also a lot of fun. Rod's family loved "The Strange Christmas Dream" so much they encouraged him to have it published so everyone would have a chance to enjoy it. Rod, Judy and two very spoiled dogs, Bella and Shorty Mae now call Rapid City, South Dakota their home.
