JAMES O'LEARY HOGAN

William and Andrew and all the Hogan Family, Jim was a very authentic unique person. May God bless you all as we celebrate with memories his extensive life. Syd and the Woodcroft Estates Security gang.

I moved from Alberta in mid 1970´s with no job. I rented a "selectric typewriter" (if anyone can even remember what those are!!) and copied the only book I had ...a TV Guide ...over and over to learn how to type. Then I found an Ad for a receptionist at a law firm in Vancouver (Hogan & Feller) ...Jim hired me !! I moved up from a Receptionist position to eventually doing conveyancing with Jim. Thanks to him, my experience allowed me to continue to work in the law field for decades,...

Jim and I were law partners briefly in 1978&79, but were good friends long before and after those two years. He had a mercurial Irish temper, a huge and infectious laugh, and an abiding loyalty to those friends and family he held dear. Jim was one of those irrepressible people best described as "larger than life" and we will miss him so long as we remember him. Swing easy my friend, Rod & Mimi

So sorry for your loss - we have known Jim since his stint in Toronto and have had great times in many parts of the world with him including Vancouver, Hawaii, Banff, Ottawa, Toronto, Cobourg, Portland, etc. Lots of happy memories - he was President of Capilano the year I was President of Mississaugua Golf !! And we were both Directors of ESCO for several years. Great guy and always lots of fun !!

Dear Andrew and William, We are sorry to hear about your loss and Jim´s passing. I´m sure we met on one of the days you brought Jim in for his IVIG treatments at Lions Gate Hospital. I´ve known Jim for almost seven years since I started working at Medical Day Care at Lions Gate, where he regularly received his IVIG. Our relationship with Jim began a bit rocky, especially as he had to adjust to the challenges of the new hospital system - and we all know how much he disliked chaos. However,...

Deep sympathy Andrew, William and to your families. I was sad to hear of Jim´s passing. Rest in love and Irish blessings, my friend.

Jim and I knew each other for several years and I´ll admit we had a row or two in that time! He will be missed. Rest peacefully my friend.
