Ivy Hogg Obituary
1935 ~ 2025 (age 89)
Ivy Christina Hogg ( Byman) was born June 17, 1935, in Wadena Saskatchewan to Edward and Ruth Byman. Except for a year in British Columbia, she grew up on the farm with siblings Phyllis, Myrna and Brian. After graduating high school, she attended Normal School in Saskatoon to become a teacher. Her first job was at Jellico, Saskatchewan in 1955 where she met Jackie Hogg. They married in 1956 and started life on the farm raising three kids, David, Billy and Lynne.
Ivy immersed herself in community life with Jackie supporting family, friends and neighbours at Jellicoe, Dodsland and Kerrobert. She played softball and was active in the Fireside Circle at Jellicoe and taught Sunday school at Jellicoe church. She was active with the UCW in Dodsland United Church, volunteered at the museum, and participated with the Dodsland Dinner theatre who travelled to drama festivals and other places in the province. She loved the Dodsland curling bonspiel where she had a hoot with Doris, Alice, and Gladys.
She was an accomplished pianist and was active with the Kerrobert Music Festival committee and was proud of Lynne’s piano accomplishments. She represented the municipality on the library board and worked with a committee who published the heritage book, “Our Community”, to share stories of the various pioneers and families in the different districts of the area.
After moving to Kerrobert, she joined the Royal Purple, and UCW, continuing to be active with different volunteer groups supporting seniors, the United Church and others in Kerrobert. She was proud that David and Bill continued volunteer work through Kinsmen, Lions, curling and hockey in Kerrobert and Dodsland. She and Jackie joined a cribbage club and loved hosting and playing weekly games. Ivy loved her coffee girls. They shared stories, birthday dinners, drama trips, line dancing etc. and formed deep friendships always having fun.
Ivy and Jackie were partners dancing through life supporting each other during good times and bad. They had fun and created laughter wherever they went. Travelling on a private jet to San Francisco and dipping their toes into the Pacific Ocean at Caramel Beach and Maui were just two of their adventures.
Family was very important. Ivy welcomed everyone from the Byman, Elander clan to the Hogg, Seime clans. All her nieces and nephews from San Francisco to those scattered across Canada loved Ivy and Jackie and treasure memories from the farm, weddings, anniversaries, birthdays, crib tournaments, visiting and hanging out at their house. They along with cousins always knew they were loved and supported by Jackie and Ivy.
Ivy was predeceased by her parents Ed and Ruth Byman, siblings, Phyllis (Paul) Myrna(Dennis) and Brian and in-laws Karen and William Hogg, Doris(Ian), Mary (Raymond) and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and a niece and nephew.
Ivy will be missed by her husband and soulmate Jack, her two sons David and Bill, her daughter Lynne (Joe) Oliver, and sister-in-law Linda and Dale Holtby as well as many other friends and relatives.
A celebration of her life will be held at a future date.
