42, passed away after a valiant battle with cancer. Born and
raised in Tampa, Kathleen graduated from Plant High School and St. Petersburg
College. She loved her job and colleagues at Jabil Circuit and remained close
friends with former co-workers at Carrabba’s. No one who knew Kathleen will
forget her wall-to-wall smile, genuine warmth and offbeat Irish humor. Even
while fighting the battle of her life, she charmed her medical team and buoyed
loved ones with her confident optimism. Throughout that too-brief life, she used
her incisive wit and practical intellect for good, but delighted in fun-loving
(though never mean-spirited) naughtiness. She wrote the book on strength of
spirit and quiet grace in the face of agonizing challenges. She will be deeply
missed by her loving parents, Thomas (Red) and Ellen Hogan; her doting sister
and brother-in-law, Meghan and Steve Tauber; devoted boyfriend, Bill Kelleher;
numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and friends across the country; plus her furry
kids, Butter and Sugar. Kathleen’s friends and loved ones will gather to
celebrate her life, swap stories and tickle old memories January 4, 2014, at the
Rusty Pelican, 2425 North Rocky Point Drive, Tampa; 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. In lieu
of flowers, please make donations to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society,
LifePath Hospice, the Humane Society Tampa Bay or charity of your choice.
