Richard's connection to Michael Garron Hospital - formerly Toronto East General - goes back over 50 years. He has had an indelible impact on the work of the hospital and the Foundation and helped to lay the groundwork for the successes we are benefitting from today. While I only had the pleasure of meeting Richard 6 years ago when I first joined the organization, his commitment and passion for MGH was infectious. He will be sorely missed and lovingly remembered. My sincerest condolences to the Hogarth family.
Richard was a wonderful man and will be sorely missed. RIP,old friend.,Ed
Good Morning,
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. My mother died just over a year ago, and not a day goes by when I don't think of her and the huge hole that her passing left in my life.
I am also sorry to contact you at this time, but I had a question pertaining to the Hogarth family. I am a History Professor at Laurentian University, and I research and write about our forests and their history. My last book, which won two national history book prizes, looked at the rise and fall of Ontario's newsprint industry between 1894 and 1932.
Major-General Donald M. Hogarth was a major player in that story, and he looms large in the research I am presently doing (it looks at resource development in Ontario and beyond during the 1900-1950 period, including Steep Rock Mine, which with DM Hogarth was associated). In this regard, I was wondering if the Hogarth family still held any archival papers from his career. I ask both as a researcher and someone who is interested in preserving archival documents for posterity.
My phone number is 705-522-1832, and my email is above.
Again, I am so sorry to bother you at this time, and my thoughts are with you.
Please take care
Mark
He was a very creative and energetic colleague.
I will always remember Richard as a very kind and generous person. I will miss our talks and visits. My deepest condolences to Martha and the rest of the family. May your memories of him comfort you.
