An Exeter legend leaves this earthly life but his legacy will live on. Never played for Mr. Bogart but had him for PE classes and spent a few dollars over the years at RSD Sports Den where he was always good for an interesting conversation and top-notch merchandise. My sympathies to all who knew and loved him, especially, of course, Mrs. Bogart and my friends Dave, Scott and Ronnalee. Hang in there Bogarts. It is tough to lose your patriarch. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

-Phil

~All of the Bogart Family~

Our heartfelt condolences to all of you during this very difficult time. Coach Bogart was such a great man and mentor. His strength, passion and determination for success in sports has made him a true legend and someone we will never forget.

~Andrea(Pearce) & Craig Alexander and family ~

Please know that my thoughts are with the Bogart family at this time. Ron’s obituary is as modest as Ron was himself. Those who know Ron’s career will remember the success he had on the field and rink as a sportsman and in the community as a dedicated family man, citizen and teacher. His legacy walks with all the young men who donned the pads and helmets under his tutelage.

Sorry to hear about Ron’s passing. We know how proud and passionate Ron was about his family and friends. His booming voice and great smile left little doubt Ron was in the room! Will be remembered as a ‘coach’ to lot of Huron County kids and as a friend to a much larger circle. With respect and a feeling of privilege to have known you , farewell.
Richard and Wendy Jennison

Dear Elaine, Dave, Ronnalee, Scott and families. My deepest condolences from from off. Sorry I won’t be able to offer them in person. Another great one has left, but Ron’s spirit remains. Can think back to so many memories of high school, the original RSD, and stories of Ron’s sporting prowess in high school with my own father.

I thank him for providing my most memorable memories of high school. My sincere condolences to each of you. His legacy lives on in those he inspired.

It is so difficult to hear of the passing of a good friend and former neighbour. Sharron and I send our most sincere condolences to the Bogart family.

My sincerest and most heart felt sympathy on the very sad passing of your life soul mate and precious Husband, Elaine and your highly respected, talented and honoured Father, David, Ronalee and Scott. I was privileged to be with your Father as recently as last June when he and your Mother were most honoured guests at our “Gr. 9 starting year class at SHDHS in 1967” reunion. I thoroughly enjoyed my conversation with your Father and received the most appreciative and kindly worded note of thanks from him that I will forever save in my “keepers” file. He was a very special man, coach, citizen…and I know, Father and Husband.
May your abundant, happy memories give you strength in the days and years ahead.

Elaine and Family

Our sincere condolences, he will be missed by many, Exeter just lost a little bit of history…..

Sincerest condolences,
A Great Coach, Teacher and Leader,
Taught us players and people to work hard, have fun and never give up.

THANK YOU MR BOGART

So sorry to hear about your loss our thoughts and prayers are with you

Thinking of you all but especially you, Elaine at this time. Ron will be missed! Sending a hug!

Having left South Huron High and the Exeter area after 1969 graduation I did not have the privilege of watching Ron and Elaine’s family grow and spread their wings with their own families. Ron’s love of life and competitive spirit however had a major impact on my own life and willingness to work with and support youth in my own community. I often reflect on my days as a panther and the capability I learned I had to dig in for “that extra yardage” for my team. You have reached the end zone. Thanks Ron

Danny “Shoe”

Elaine and family. We are saddened to hear of Ron’s passing, and our deepest sympathies go out to all of you. Ron had a great impact on not only the stud nets he taught and coached but also on those of us who were fortunate to call him a co-worker.

Bill & Janice Shore

Scott, my deepest condolences to you and your family. I always had a lot of respect for Mr Bogart not only because of his accomplishments and his role as a teacher and coach but because he treated me and everyone else with respect and dignity. He will be missed but never forgotten by anyone who had the pleasure of meeting him and your family.

Sincerely,
Ray & Nadine Chong

Elaine,Dave, Ronnalee, Scott and families,You have our heartfelt sympathy on Ron’s passing. Remember your wonderful memories, and I am sure there are many. Ron was part of SHDHS when I attended there. He was part of our sports community, part of Exeter. He will be missed. I enjoy reading the book he co-wrote. Hugs and prayers, George and Sue Wilson, Cathie and Bill Wuerth, Judi Wilson and Tracy and Michael DeGroot

The Bogarts always treated me well and maintained contact with me when I left Exeter. We had our disagreements , but there was a great deal of respect as well.
Ron was an excellent coach, administrator and teacher. His energy and strength inspired students and coaches at South Huron to participate and to produce quality teams.
Even more important was the way he treated people. You knew that you had a friend for life when you dealt with him. He was a true friend.

Mr. Bogart was top, him and Mr. Halpenny ran a physical education program that could not be surpassed. I’ve seen and talked to him at his grandchildren’s hockey (big camera in hand ) , proud beyond words. Rest In Peace Ron.

Mr. Bogart was a very strong and positive influence in my high school years and one of the main reasons I went to the University of Waterloo to take Kinesiology. A great coach, teacher and role model.

Elaine ,Scott and families
We are all in shock to hear of Rons passing. I will miss Rons jokes , his awesome sense of humour and great conversations we always had. He was a great guy.
Find comfort in knowing that he will be missed by so many in our community!
Tom Hartai

That wit, those twinkling eyes, that sense of humour — Ron will be missed. My condolences to all of the Bogart family on the loss of such a vital soul. He will always be remembered…with a smile.

Sending hugs to you and the family and knowing that the great memories you have to hold close and help you through this sad time!!

Elaine, Dave, Ronalee, Scott and families

I am saddened and sorry to hear of Ron’s passing. I am thankful for the recent memory of him at Doc’s memorial, standing proudly in his Hawk’s jersey as he regaled the room in his booming voice of stories of he and Doc. He was a legendary coach and teacher at SHDHS, shaping our young minds and bringing us to football glory in Goderich. He will not be forgotten. May he Rest In Peace.

Elaine and families….Please accept our sincere condolences…Ron was a real supporter of sports and an all around nice guy….good memories..Norm and Kay Tripp

Mrs Bogart and family.
So sorry to hear of Mr Bogarts passing.
Knowing him for the last 38 years I can say that he did mould my future and in knowing him I became who I am today.
After high school he told me to call him Ron but I had too much respect for him.

Thank you Mr Bogart, you will be missed.

Elaine & Family:
So sorry to hear of Ron’s Passing, You & your Family are in my thoughts & Prayers

Having originally grown up on a farm at R.R. 2 Southwold, Ontario, I had the pleasure of knowing the Bogarts long before my family moved to Exeter. The Bogart farm was located between our farm and my aunt and uncles farm on what is now known as “Carriage Lane” but in those days was simply known as the 2nd.
It wasn’t until high-school in Exeter that I once again got to meet Ron when he was my gym teacher.
Ron was a good man, and I know he will be deeply missed.
My deepest felt condolences to the Bogart family
God Bless you all!

I remember my moms first cousin Ron and his awesome barbie doll clothes sewing wife Elaine. They took me home one summer for two weeks and I had the best time with them. I am so sorry for your loss and I pray for peace with your family. Sending Love from all of our family in Michigan.
Sadly Sincerely, Beth Ann (DePlaunty) Hrlic

In the classroom, and on the field, Mr. Bogart demanded the best and he gave his best, always. How else does one command the respect of an entire community for a lifetime?
I’m very sad that he is gone, but I know that I had a chance to tell him, on several occasions, how much I appreciated what he did for us and what he brought out of us. What an incredible legacy he leaves behind.
Rest in peace, Mr. Bogart.

A man who taught not only through his words, but actions. He led by example, inspiring those around him do better, to be more. My sincerest sympathy to the entire family.

Julia Merner

_Dear ELaine and family,

Sorry to hear of Ron’s passing. The pictures bring back fond memories. I know it has been a long time since we have
seen each other but you look the same and Ron reminds me of Uncle Lawrence. Your children are grown as are mine.
And I am sure they will be a comfort to you.

Sincerly Jane Walsh

Our deepest sympathy to your family at this time.

To the Bogart Team.
May you be comforted by the many shoulders of invisible gratitude that carry Mr. Bogart on one more victory lap.
Congratulations to him on winning on the most important field of all, that of a life well lived.

Hard not to model yourself after Ron Bogart. He was the epitome of respect, hard work, honesty, integrity and understanding a person’s ability. It didn’t matter what amount of talent you had. If you worked hard and were committed that was what he expected. A lesson I was able to have him ‘pay it forward for me’. Thank you Ron for all the coaching and teaching both on and off the field. My deepest condolences to the Bogart family.

Elaine and family.
Our condolences on the passing of Ron. He is well remembered as a neighbour and friend,
You were great neighbours when we lived on Pryde Blvd.
Ron touched the lives of many people both through Education and Sports.
Thinking of you and your family.
Regards Flo, Jack and family.

Whether as Ron or as Bogie, he was such a good natured and good hearted friend who will be missed by all. Our sincere condolences to Elaine and family.

Elaine, Dave, Ronnalee, Scott and family, I’m so sorry to hear of Ron’s passing. Reading the numerous condolences speaks volumes of the type of man Ron was; the life he lived and the life’s he touched. A true ambassador to SHDHS, coach, teacher, mentor, gentleman and friend. One class act! I had the honour and privilege of playing on Ron’s 1976 championship senior football team. Now my friend, it’s your turn to take the ball and run that ‘Ron Bogart patented Panther Sweep right on 3.’ Rest In Peace Bogie!

Still loved, still missed and very dear.

Elaine and family,
The numerous comments of condolence say it all. Ron was a well respected, fair, hard working role model who was loved by many – family, neighbours, friends and former students. My kindest thoughts are with you at this sad time.

Elaine and family.. Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss. Ron was a true mentor and a guiding hand for many of SHDHS students.

Hello Elaine and family,
We meet many people in our lifetime and there are some who leave a lasting impression. Ron was clearly one of those people. Whether it was at the rink, on the field, in the classroom, or having a general conversation, Ron was “all-in” and always fully engaged. We all learned so much from him about doing our best, keeping family first, and having a zest for life. What an inspiration he was for so many people and what a life well lived!
I was reviewing some of Ron’s coaching playbook notes the other day (written in special “Ron Bogart font”) and could not help but think of all the good times, and all the life lessons learned, as a result of knowing Ron.
Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this difficult time.
Sincerely,
John and Tracy Van Gerwen

Always had a smile and made time for you. There was no one more dedicated to their profession either on or off the field or the ice.
You were so blessed to call him Husband, Dad & Grandpa and we thank you for sharing this special MAN with all of us.

Sincerely,
Paul & Jean Mason

So sorry to hear of Ron’s passing. He touched so many people and helped to shape lives. Enjoyed those years with the RSD ball team with many great memories. H will be missed

A huge loss for the community. He will be greatly missed.

I was a student at South Huron and graduated in 1966. In one of the courses I took from Ron we surveyed the football field and then plotted a topographic map. This experience was my first exposure to Engineering. I graduated from Waterloo as a Civil Engineer and spent my career as an Engineer. Ron was also my football coach for four years.

I thank Ron for awaking my interest in engineering.

My deepest sympathies to each of you and your families. I was very sorry to hear of Mr.B’s passing. I have great memories of spending Saturdays at the store with him (there may have been a few blueberry muffins involved) but my fondest memory was being one of two grade 12 girls in a full OAC phys.ed class and him telling me “don’t let those boys intimidate you”. He was a great man, with a great family. Hugs to you all at this difficult time.

To the entire Bogart Family: I was very sad to hear of the passing of Ron. Those of us who got to know him through school will always remember him as Mr. Bogart. Such a nice man who always seemed to have a smile on his face and always took the time to say hello and ask how you are. He will be missed by the entire community and by SHDHS alumni. May your memories bring you peace. My sincerest condolences.

Elaine, Scott, Lynda and families. So very sorry to hear of Ron’s passing. He will definately be missed at the Laker games with his camera in tow. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of you.

I’m sorry to hear of your loss. Mr. Bogart is one of those people that you remember your entire life.

Elaine, and all the Bogart Family,

Sorry to hear of your loss. Our Prayers go out to you in the hope you will remember all the great times. I will always remember Ron as being the Teacher/Coach from high school, all HS sports, especially football (Senior Football Champs 1967), a very strong competitor in rec. fastball and involvement in junior hockey. RIP Bogey……

My condolences to the family. Ron was a very effective and organized teacher and coach. I enjoyed his contributions as chair of the Huron- Perth Athletic organization and will miss his always warm smile.

Elaine & family
Sincere condolences. I remember a wonderful person, teacher and coach from my SHDHS days. May the good memories bring comfort to you and your family.

Dear Elaine, Dave, Ronnalee, Scott, & Family,

Please accept our sincerest condolences. Ron was an amazing sportsman. I have very fond memories of him as my coach in hockey for numerous years and later on as a phys. ed. instructor at South Huron. Let it be known that it was his influence which inspired me to become involved in my own kids’ sporting endeavours as a hockey and soccer coach. I realized too the full extent of Ron’s impact when I became a teacher myself.

He will be greatly missed but take comfort knowing that he is now in the best place possible; in the loving hands of our Lord.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to you.

David Cann & Mary Ann Hogan

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Ron. He was such a truly nice person and great mentor. I saw him a few years ago at a hockey game after not having seen him for years and he was his usual jovial self and exhibited his usual great wit. I felt a true kinship with him. He will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this trying time.

Mr. Bogart was one of the greatest teachers, coaches and neighbours of our community, and an ever greater Dad, Grandpa and sports fan! We will remember him fondly. Condolences to the entire family during this difficult time.

The Yeck Division of the PJHL is very saddened by the passing of Ron. On behalf of the teams and league executive, please accept our condolences at this time.

Chris and myself were happy to see Ron and Elaine at our 50 year grade nine reunion in June this year. Ron appeared happy meeting with students he taught and had not seen for decades. The memories of him laughing and reminiscing will be cherished. We offer our deepest sympathies to Elaine and her family. Ron’s teaching days touched and influenced many students lives resulting in many achieving touchdowns in their careers.

Scott, Lynda and Bogart Family – our deepest condolences on losing such a wonderful father, grandfather, husband…He was such a well respected and loved man at SHDHS and will always be remembered for his wonderful smile. Thoughts and prayers are with you all at this sad time. Cherish the memories…

Condolences to the Bogart family. A great teacher and coach. (Thank you Ron for talking me into coming back to play football in my final year of high school)
Every community should be so lucky to have someone as dedicated and involved. Be proud in the positive impact he made on so many people.

Condolences to Elaine and all the family from Niall and Rosemary Straw. Ron was a man who always showed respect and deserved respect for his contributions to South Huron life.
Niall and Rosemary

Not only a good coach a great educator. My youngest son was an All Canadian at Guelph, where I saw him often. He was Guelphs Captain in the mid 50’s. I met his teammates at a Homecoming and it was obvious that his ex-teammates considered him as the leader. Ron was always very kind to my wife and I. Debbie Bogart went to school with my wife in St. Thomas Ontario.Exeter has lost a legend.
