Erin was a CELEBRATION! A perfect LEO, Erin loved life and lived it to the fullest! After college she wanted to go to law school, but was discouraged since the feeling, at that time, was that it was difficult for women lawyers. But, it was written in the stars that Erin would meet John Hogan, the love of her life. Together there was nothing that they couldn't do. John adored Erin, there was never a harsh word, never anyplace they didn't travel to, or anything she ever wanted for. Together...

Spent many overnights as a kid at the Hogan house...Mrs Hogan was such a beautiful person with such a kind heart...She embodied class and was such a presence but always warm...When I would run into her over the years she was so interested in how I was and my family.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Jake Matt Dan Mike and there families ....RIP Mrs Hogan you will be missed....

To Jake and the family and friends of Erin Sweeney Hogan,
I first met Erin when I attended the wake for her brother at the Leahy Funeral Home in South Troy. She was a delightful lady. During the wake, her husband, John, whom I had known since the mid-70's, and I exchanged stories about our extensive world travels with our spouses. I'm glad they had that shared opportunity. With Erin's passing, it seems like the end of an era for me. I remember her dad's stately presence on the...

Erin was a lovely and caring person. She and I would have some nice conversations when our son and Jake were growing up. Prayers for all of her family at this difficult time.

Dear Jake, Matt, Dan and Mike, I am so sorry to hear of the death of your dear Mother. I have fond memories of her working at Spa Catholic when I taught business there in the late 1970s. She was a wonderful woman with a very generous heart. Ironically, she grew up in Sacred Heart Parish in Troy, as I did. I remember your grandparents at Sunday Mass each week. Your Mom and Dad are now together, and they can watch over you and your families. God bless you. You are being remembered in my...
