Thomas Patrick Hogan

Yesterday around noon in Fairbanks I received a call from my parents telling me that my Uncle Tom passed away suddenly and unexpectedly. My uncle was a proud father, wonderful husband and incredible grandfather. His Irish eyes were always smiling, in fact I imagine they still are.

May the road rise up to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields and until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.
