Janet Hogan, at 86

Janet (Bolduc) Hogan of Hull passed away peacefully surrounded by family on November 21, 2024 at the age of 86. 

Born in Cambridge to the late Armand and Cora Bolduc, Mrs. Hogan was the youngest of two children. In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by her beloved husband, Paul L. Hogan, and her brother, Robert Roulston.

Mrs. Hogan is survived by her children, Paul Hogan, Jr. of Oregon, John Hogan of Weymouth, Katie Williamson and her husband, Steven, of Hull, Joanne Burns and her husband, Mark, of Hull, and Marie Hogan of Hull. A proud and loving Mémé, she is survived by her grandchildren: Keri, Michael, Jake, Joseph, Lauren, Daniel, Elicia, James, and Erika. Mrs. Hogan also was blessed with six great-grandchildren: Jewlia, Seth, Calvin, Lucas, Dominic, and Natalie. She also is survived by her nephew, Robert Roulston, Jr., and his wife, Nancy, of Florida.

A graduate of Notre Dame de Pitié school in Cambridge, Mrs. Hogan held countless friendships and her faith from her school years close to her for her entire life. Janet and Paul, whom she and others affectionately called Bogie, started their family in Cambridge before moving to Hull in 1972 to the house where she would raise five children and entertain her grandchildren during the next 52 years.

Mrs. Hogan loved to travel all over, from Aruba to Alaska, and most importantly to Graceland to see the home of her favorite, Elvis. When she was not traveling, Mrs. Hogan would pass time crocheting afghans and baby outfits for family and friends. She was a loving and loyal friend who was known to have a social routine – whether that was Friday nights out with the girls, Wednesday night dinners with her daughters, an annual Mother’s Day brunch that seemed to always grow in attendees throughout the years, or the daily lunch visits from her son John, she always had something to look forward to.

Visiting hours were held on Sunday, November 24. Her funeral Mass was on Monday in St. Mary’s Parish in St. Ann’s Church, followed by burial in Hull Village Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations in Mrs. Hogan’s name may be made to South Shore Visiting Nurses Association, 55 Fogg Rd., South Weymouth, MA 02190. Visit www.keohane.com for online condolences.
