IN LOVING MEMORY
To our family and friends:
This past year has been a bit of a blur, with the initial shock of losing Ryan, we have gradually grown in the tender embrace of all of your care, love, and concern for us.
We have tried to celebrate Ryan’s amazing life at each opportunity. Here are a few things that have happened, with a little help from our friends.
1. The team at Superior Jetties have been amazing in their support of the family and a garden and plaque sprung up, all made by hand in house, within a couple of weeks.
2. The VMR received many donations and refurbished their outdoor BBQ area and erected a sign in Ryan’s memory.
3. There is a remembrance plaque (due next week) in the Surfers Paradise Catholic Church Columbarium on Fairways Drive, Clear Island Waters. There is a seat by the lake and it is a peaceful place.
4. There is now a sign of remembrance erected above the Coral Sea Marina by Paul and the team in Airlie Beach. Ryan was part of this community and this is a wonderful spot to visit. Ben Kelman is there today with a can of CC, as is the Coral Sea crew.
5. The Boat Works team have named their new 300T lift “Rhino”, which was Ryan’s nickname with his mates. It is being commemorated with this sign on the 25th October 2019.
6. In this years 75th Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race, we have commissioned “Ryan’s Ride” to Tassy as he always wanted to do it. The Beneteau First 40 “Protagonist” has Ryan’s Full Moon Rhino logo wrapped on the hull. The logo was created by Franky McBain. John is in the crew and we look forward to this as a tribute to Ryan and his sense of adventure.
7. The red beacon at the northern end of the spit “Single Ladies beach” has an unofficial name Ryan Hogan Red on Navionics.
Thank you
Regards,
Jackie, John & David.
I worked with Ryan on a tough project with massive amounts of pressure to succeed, which we did succeed. Ryan played a massive part in this success and performed his work with passion and good vibes. I only heard this today and am stunned to hear this news, I would like to offer my deepest sympathy to the Hogan family.
Thanks Gareth. We never forget him. Every day.
John & David
I went to high school with Ryan in Minnesota. My first day in 11th grade he sat next to me, flirting with me lol. We hung out several times after. He was so fun!! I’ll never forget his smile, laugh, charm, wit, and character. Ryan was one in a million, truly! We called him “Hogue’s.” I’m terribly sorry for your loss. You raised quite the young man. I think of Ryan often. Sending your family love and peace.
Thanks Natalie. We celebrate his life as well lived too.
John
I thought of Ryan today. He pops into my head unexpectedly at random times, but ALWAYS when I hear the song “Piano Man”. I miss his smile and spirit, today and always. <3
Thx Amy. I do the same when I hear Piano Man. John
I only found out about Ryan’s passing today. I am shocked and saddened. My deepest condolences. He was an outstanding young man, a credit to himself and those who raised him.
I just heard of Ryan’s passing, and can’t even begin to imagine the pain felt in losing a son and brother. My heart aches for you and deeply with you. I pray that God will continue to carry and comfort each in your family.
Missing your voice buddy!
Our deepest sympathy to the Hogan family.
Both Angus & I worked with Ryan in Townsville. Ryan will be remembered for so many things; his generosity and his kindness to name a few. He was a gentle soul who will be sadly missed by everyone.
Our deepest sympathies to the Hogan family and to the Superior Jetties community.
Rest In Peace Ryan

Having worked alongside Ryan in Townsville, his enthusiasm, humour, passion and energy was infectious. A good man with a kind heart.

Julie, we met Ryan only Saturday fortnight ago at a friends gathering. Got to spend a great afternoon/evening with him. Such a shock to hear of this when it happened. What a coincidence you knew him. RIP to his family at this terrible time.
I looked after Ryan and David for a couple of years, in Glenden when they were very little two and three while Jackie and John worked in the mine .
Deepest Condolence to John & family. Ryan to Rest In Peace and leaving on in the heart of all love ones. A difficult time to pass and will pass with strength and time.
Kind regards,

I can’t believe it. My heart is bleeding. Rest in paradise my old friend. You were taken WAY too soon. Life will be a little weird without you around.
Ryan’s smile was infectious and the team had the pleasure of meeting him whilst delivering a vessel last year and stopped into Port Moresby. A terrific young man we will sincerely miss from our industry. To John, Jackie and family words cannot convey our deepest sympathies.
RIEP Ryan.
I hurt for you all. My deepest sympathies John, Jackie, and David. I know Ryan will live on in your hearts. I send you much love from Wisconsin.
