Info | Mark Anthony Hogan, born in Chicago on January 27, 1931, died on Sunday. He is survived by his loving wife Linda Peterson Hogan, and his children, Cary, Mark, Lisa, Matthew and Michael Hogan, as well as Tami Peterson Beardsley, and grandchildren Bryant Bowlby, Matthew Cohen, Maxwell and Jami Hogan, Maddie and Maura Allen, Kassie and Connor Hogan, Thomas, Sarah, Molly, Catherine, Joseph and Lovena Hogan, and Georgia and Sawyer Beardsley and more nieces and nephews than space allows to name. Mr. Hogan grew up in Chicago and attended Saint Ignatius High School, then graduated from Georgetown University in 1952 with a degree in economics. He went on to serve in the United States Navy until 1954, where he achieved the rank of lieutenant. He married Nancy Stevenson Hogan and they settled in Denver, Colorado, where he became a realtor, serving as president of the Denver Board of Realtors and formed Hogan-Stevenson Realty. Hogan was active in the community and his civic contributions were recognized in 1961, when he was chosen Colorado Man of the Year. In 1962, he was elected to the first of two consecutive terms in the Colorado House of Representatives. While in the House, Hogan served as the Assistant Majority Leader until he was elected Lieutenant Governor in 1966. He was the "last activist" Lieutenant Governor of Colorado, when he was the only Democrat elected to a state-wide office in 1967, serving under Republican Governor John Love. The state constitution was then changed to require the governor and lieutenant governor to run on the same ticket. He then ran unsuccessfully against John Love for Governor in 1970 and later served as chair of the Colorado Democratic Party from 1979 through 1980. Hogan married Linda Peterson on January 6, 1990 and they shared a home in Denver until his death. Hogan volunteered at Hospice, and served as a mentor to many, but had a special place in his heart for Nathan Williams. Mark Hogan was known for his intelligence and humor, his love and guidance and will be missed by his loving family and friends.
