Michael C. "Mike" Hoag

"Hogsville"… That was how Mike signed my high school year book. Mike was an original. Mike touched many of us with his humor and his zest for life. He was one of my first "best" friends and remained one of my oldest and closest friends. Mike influenced my life in too many ways to count. You are missed my friend. Hit 'em long and hit 'em straight up there Michael, and at the end of each round may you find comfort in sitting in the "Big Chair" with an Anheuser-Busch product in your hand!

My thoughts and prayers to you Linda and family. I remember Mike as "Hog" and knew him through Jim Rogers. He was a funny man~ made me smile a lot! Rest in peace Mike.

I can remember how he gave Mrs Young in accounting class such a hard time. He was always such a class clown.

My prayers are with Linda and the family. In my thoughts Hog and Big Frank are having a few beers and telling jokes. Much love and hugs..Bo

The way I have it figured , Hoggie Dog is probably teeing them up right now with Zarkie and Hoona and living a pain free existence . Rest in peace my friend ,Rest in peace

TO THE HOAG FAMILY:
I MET MIKE THROUGH MY WORK AND HIS. WHAT A CHARACTER. I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THE BIB OVERALLS AND THAT GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR. REST IN PEACE MIKE. I OWE YOU A ROUND OF GOLF.

Mike was a close buddy in high school. We shared many good times. We played hard. Mike's love of life drew many of us to him. He was the friend you would call and you could pick up where you left off.....I can not call Mike anymore. He was loved and will be missed. I'm thankful he was part of my life.

He was funny! A lot better comedian than singer but he sure tried.
As far as golf I hope they have a 7 iron up there, that's all I seen him hit from 150 on in.
See you on the next Tee box Hoag.

WE WILL MISS YOU AND THAT HOG SENSE OF HUMOR GOD BLESS THE FOSS
