Ellis Gary “Doc” Hogan, 72, was called home to our Lord on Tuesday, August 2, 2022.
Born October 24, 1949, in Louisville, Kentucky to Ellis and Myrtle Hogan. Doc, was a unique and caring individual who touched the lives of all who knew him. He raised seven loving children, including two stepchildren (Heather and Westley). However, if you were to ask him, he may have said all the babies he delivered and treated were considered family.
He was a graduate of Caverna High School. Doc went to Harding University for his undergraduate studies and the University of Louisville for medical school. He loved being a physician and truly had a passion for medicine. His last wish was to donate his body to science and help with future medical research.
He was preceded in death by his daughter Sonya; parents, Ellis and Myrtle; and brother Darrell.
He is survived by his children Byron, Laura (Bryan), Kyle, Brooke (Mark), Amber, and Hannah; his grandchildren, Kelsey, Brailyn, Sawyer, Harper, Maci, Drew, Finn, and Ellie; his stepmother Bertha; his sister, Pam and his brother, Tony; as well as his niece Emily, nephew Michael, and nephew Ben.
A Celebration of Doc’s Life will be held on Saturday, September 3, 2022 at Bob Hunt Funeral Chapel, 410 North Dixie Highway, Cave City, Kentucky 42127. Doc always had an open-door policy and loved having visitors and meeting with people. So, in true Doc fashion, anyone who wishes to come, all are welcome!
***** The family will receive friends on Saturday, September 3, 2022 from 10:00 a.m. until time for services at 11:30 a.m. *****
A meal and biodegradable balloon release at the Funeral Home will immediately follow the service.
In lieu of flowers, Doc would have loved the idea of helping the next generation of Doctors. Donations may be made directly at www.give.louisville.edu or can be made at the funeral home the day of his service.
Bob Hunt Funeral Chapel is honored to be assisting the family with arrangements.
