Mitte der 1940er gab er den Musikerberuf ganz auf. 1957 bis 1963 spielte er mit den Original Jazz All-Stars von Franz Jackson, mit dem er auch aufnahm. Shoffner nahm in den 1920er Jahren auf mit den Blues Serenaders von Lovie Austin, mit Jimmy O’Bryant, Ida Cox, Luis Russell (1926), King Oliver und später mit Frankie Jaxon, Richard M. Jones und Jesse Stone. Er galt als tüchtiger Trompeter im klassischen Jazzstil, schrieb Stephen Longstreet (Knaurs Jazzlexikon) (de)

He moved to New York City in 1934, and played there with Fess Williams, Fletcher Henderson, and Hot Lips Page (1938). He returned once more to Chicago around 1940, and took a job working for the state; he recorded with Richard M. Jones in the middle of the 1940s, but then took a hiatus from music until 1957 to play with Franz Jackson's Original Jazz All-Stars (1957-1963). Health concerns forced him into semi-retirement after this time. Shoffner also recorded in the 1920s with Lovie Austin, Jimmy O'Bryant, Ida Cox, and Luis Russell. (en)
