Wesley Bogie

Wesley Edward (Ed) Bogie was born on November 3, 1934, in Delhi, Louisiana, to Agnew Kenneth Bogie and Lillie May Sykes Bogie. He passed away on January 20, 2025, surrounded by his loving family. Ed was preceded in death by his parents; wife Louraine in 2000; sisters Fanny Hart, Daisy Wilcher, Ruby Stilwell, Bernice Burnell, and Louise Evans; brothers Jesse Bogie and AG Bogie; and great-granddaughter Peyton Faith Marshall. He is survived by daughter Goldie Lee (Lea) Wright and husband Jerry; son Steven Edward Bogie, his wife Cathy, and Steve's mother Betty Bogie; grandchildren Buck Bogie and wife Jennifer, Brandon Wright, Cristi Bogie and fiancée Danny Dabbs, and Kimberly Dawn Marshall and husband Josh; great-grandchildren Paige Marshall, Jayden Wright, Julia Scott, Jonathan Wright, Jaxon Marshall, Genna Bogie and partner Dustin Gatewood, Taylor Bogie and partner Joey Ellis, and Madyson Scott and partner Bryar White; great-great-grandchildren Olivia Gatewood, Daxton Gatewood, Beau Ellis, Luke Ellis, Brixley White, and Mia White; and many nieces, nephews, extended family, and friends.
Ed enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corp at age 18 in 1953. He loved his country and was very proud to be a Marine. He was stationed in North Carolina, California, Arizona, Virginia, Oklahoma, and Texas; and had overseas assignments in Japan and Vietnam. After his retirement from the Marines in 1973, his family settled in Moore, Oklahoma. Ed worked in various occupations after his military service, most notably as the security guard at the Regency Towers Apartments at the time of the Murray Building bombing. He was so affected by that experience that he and Louraine briefly moved to California and then Arkansas before returning to the Moore area, where he resided until his passing.
Ed enjoyed making puzzles, playing cards and dominoes with family and friends, playing pool at his daughter's house, and watching MeTV. In his younger years, Ed was an avid bowler and was well known for his pristine lawn and gardens. He was an automobile lover and leaves an impressive collection of die-cast model classic cars. Ed loved to eat Chinese food at the House of Schezwan, where he ate almost every day, until its closing in 2024, but he remained close to the owners and their family. Ed was devoted to his family and friends and was always willing to lend a helping hand in any way he could. He will be sorely missed.
The family would like to offer their sincere thanks to all those who provided prayers, condolences, and meals during this difficult time. Your support and friendship is very much appreciated.
