See you down the road Father Jerry . . .

Fr. Jerry Hogan has been an important part of the lives of circus people everywhere for almost three decades. His smile, his laugh, his love of the circus and the circus community has been a constant comfort as he has ministered to our international, multi denominational community wherever we are. He has been there to share our joy and comfort our sorrow.He has presided over countless weddings, baptisms, funerals and other important sacraments for the circus community as well as being a compassionate counselor to anyone who approached him regardless of their position or denomination. As Father Jerry has said of his ministry, “I’m there to play the circus people in - and play them out”. Sadly we are the ones left to draw the curtain as Fr. Jerry has left us. Rest in peace dear friend. See you down the road...
