I went on vacation when I was a kid with Mrs hogan and her family. My family lived across the street from hers in Riverdale. She was kind enough to include me since my family did not go on vacation much back then. We went to Maggie valley NC and I will always remember the good time we all had. I give my sincere condolences to her family. I wish I would have seen her before she passed. My Mother, Dot Wheeling, 93, at the Berkshire in Vinton, also sends her warmest regards and sincere sorrow over Mrs. Hogan's passing.

My condolences to Mrs. Hogan's family--she was my great-grandfather's first cousin through the Cheek family, and I called her several years ago because I am interested in genealogy and she was one of the few remaining in that generation. If at some point any of you want to contact me regarding her genealogy (Cheeks and other ancestral families), feel free to email me at [email protected] or google my name to find my genealogy website. I'd be interested in scanned copies of any old family photographs she may have had, and can share one I have of her Grandfather Cheek who was in the Civil War.
