Go Hogan High School Class of 1985

1985 June 16. Throwin' it back to our Baccalaureate Mass days before graduation at St Basil the Great Catholic Church.

Had to take a photo with our Hogan counselor, Mr. Ricky Nutt.

J.F. & Ricky Nutt


A Baccalaureate Mass is a religious service, typically a Catholic Mass, held in conjunction with graduation ceremonies. It's a time for graduates, their families, and the university community to give thanks for the educational journey and to offer blessings for the future. It's a tradition at many universities, especially those with Catholic affiliations, and often includes readings, prayers, a homily, and sometimes musical performances.

Throwback to Hogan '85's 10th Class Reunion 1995 October. Walnut Creek, CA. Back when our very own E40's "Sprinkle Me" hit #5 on Billboard's Hot Rap Songs. Earl Stevens (E40) joined us at that tenth reunion. Tony, Ron and I hung out in his suite... watching his video while it played on the TV. Good times! Tracy Waterman: I received your $30 fee. I have transferred it over to Ron Stainer. I will treat any future fees sent to me as donations to my travel fund. 😉 I'm hoping to be out of the country during our reunion later this year. Tony Palisoc, Ron Stainer, J.F. Perseveranda Sprinkle Me - e40

What's The Status Hogan Class of 1985?!

Go Hogan High School Class of 1985 Tania Ponder texted our GroupMe group chat this morning: "What is the status for the 40th class reunion?" Again, I'm no longer part of the 40th Class Reunion Committee actively 'planning' the event. I believe the committee is going forward with the event I did plan. A few months ago, Gloria texted me "What's the group consensus?" on how to text each (keep in touch) because she had problems with GroupMe. Here's my response that I shared with Ron Stainer a couple weeks ago: After our 20th class reunion in Walnut Creek and I decided to take it upon myself to do the 25th class reunion, I created our Yahoo Group (which no longer exists). After I learned about Facebook and joined in 2007, I created our Facebook Group . I created the first version of Hogan85 blog in 2009, but I lost access to my account which was work-related. I bought & managed the domain HoganSpartans.com, created/managed the Hogan High School ...
