Thomas Hogben Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Nov. 26, 2007.
HOGBEN _ Thomas G. 1924 - 2007 Tom, beloved husband of Ruth, said "Goodbye" on Thursday, November 22. Born in Winnipeg, Tom was in the RCAF before moving to Calgary where he was Regional Manager for NCR for thirty-five years. Always active in the community he was a Shriner and a member of the Rotary Club. He loved golf and curling. He is survived by Ariel (Paul), grandson Hayden, son Reed and sister Janet. Tom loved a good joke and he is smiling now knowing he has escaped taxes, the next election and crazy drivers. Donations in Tom's memory may be made to Calgary Health Trust, Foothills Medical Centre, Unit 47. Please join us at Willow Park Golf Club (639 Willow Park Drive S.E., Calgary) on December 2 at 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. to celebrate Tom's Life. SOUTH CALGARY FUNERAL CENTRE & CREMATORIUM 12700 Macleod Trail South, Calgary Telephone: 403-297-0711. Honoured Provider of Dignity Memorial
