Arthur Douglas Hogan, 71, Campbellsville, KY

 

Arthur Douglas Hogan, 71, of Campbellsville, KY, son of the late Joe Coakley Hogan and Mozelle McDonald Hogan, was born October 24, 1952 in Taylor County KY. He died at 11:30pmET on Saturday, November 18, 2023 in Campbellsville.

 

He professed faith in Christ and was of the Methodist faith. Doug was a graduate of Kentucky Wesleyan College and he was a retired employee of Exxon Mobil. Doug’s career allowed him to experience so many adventures for a little fellow who grew up in the country. He was able to see firsthand the beauty, of not only the land on which he lived, but the waters that surrounded it.  Living and working on a ship hundreds of miles out in the sea developed Doug into much of the person he became.  He had a passion for that ship and for his job.

 

Doug lived a life of simple means. To him, there was no need for bigger or better. All he needed was a landline or a visit to the back door, and he could talk for hours.  It didn’t matter if you were a relative, an old acquaintance, a new friend, or a stranger he just met, he wouldn’t hesitate to share a story or two.

 

Doug had a big heart that showed as he would often help others in need or tend to the many animals he would take in over the years.   As the youngest sibling, he carried many fond memories of his childhood and the community in which he grew up. Mannsville was always home for Doug, and his family was always in his heart and mind.

 

SURVIVORS:

A host of family & friends who will miss him dearly

 

In addition to his parents, he was also preceded in death by one brother and three sisters: Jim Hogan, Joyce Dearen, Anna  Mae Phillips and Tilda Lamb.

Frank Harden Wilcoxson, 86, Campbellsville, KY

 

Frank Harden Wilcoxson, 86, of Campbellsville, KY passed away on Wednesday, November 15, 2023 surrounded by family after a long and fruitful life. He was born on January 29, 1937 to Thurman and Sadie Sharp Wilcoxson in Black Gnat, KY.

 

Frank graduated from Taylor County High School just before marrying his high school sweetheart, Aileen Harden Wilcoxson at the age of 17. He served in the Kentucky National Guard and was a faithful member and deacon at Beech Grove Baptist Church. Frank owned Wilcoxson Construction and enjoyed building barns for farms across the state. But his favorite work was tending the land, and he raised countless cows, donkeys, horses, pigs and—in the later years—fainting goats. He was a farmer in every sense of the word, cultivating life and growth in all sorts of places, from the fields to the Sunday school classroom.

 

He was also an avid storyteller, a thing those who had the privilege of sitting around his kitchen table know all too well. Never one to rush to the punchline, he told tales with long pauses and a dry wit that hooked his listeners from the start and kept them on the line for—in many cases—hours on end.

 

Most of all, Frank was an incredible husband, father and grandfather. He took immense delight in surrounding himself with his girls and their families. He spent his seven decades of marriage and more than sixty years of fatherhood showing those around him what it looked like to work joyfully and sacrifice without complaint for the good of those with whom he was entrusted. In that, he reflected the Christ who saved him and called him friend; the Christ in whose presence he now rests and rejoices.

 

Frank was predeceased by parents and two sisters, Linda Jane Wilcoxson and Peggy Gilpin and her husband, Bobby.

3 daughters: Debbie Wilcoxson; Rhonda Rose & husband Jamie; and Cindy Jaggers & husband David

Allen grew up helping his father on the family farm. He developed his love of basketball in high school and acquired the nickname Spivey. Allen was drafted into the Army and served for 2 years in Germany. While in Europe, he played basketball for his division and enjoyed trips to Paris and London. Upon his return to the states he settled in Nashville, Tennessee and married Elizabeth Anne Hall in 1960. Anne and he lived in Nashville for over 10 years while having their three children, Allen Jr., John and Elizabeth. Allen worked for Peat, Marwick & Mitchell (now known as KPMG) while in Nashville. In the early 70s, they moved back to Campbellsville to be with their families. Allen established his own CPA firm and practiced for over 28 years. He taught his children his love of the outdoors through numerous camping and canoeing trips. Anne and he kept their boat in a slip at Emerald Isle Marina until Anne’s stroke in 2004. Allen loved fishing on Green River Lake. He held the record at one time for the largest muskie caught in Green River Lake. This fish adorned his office walls and the Taylor County Airport for many years. When not working or fishing, he loved watching the University of Kentucky basketball team play ball. Many a Saturday afternoon or evening was spent watching and yelling at the game with friends. Allen enjoyed traveling and playing bridge with Anne. He was extremely proud of his five grandchildren and enjoyed visiting with them whenever he could. Allen was a member of Bethel First Presbyterian Church, Campbellsville Country Club, the American Legion, and Lions Club.
