Daniel died as a result of the BP Amoco refinery explosion in Texas City, Texas. He lived his faith, friends and family members said. He devoted himself to helping youth here and abroad, in places such as Albania, Mexico, Ecuador and war-torn Kosovo. "That will be his legacy," his son, Jason Robinson, said of Hogan's work with relief groups such as the Texas Baptist Men and the Louisiana Baptist Men, as well as the Royal Ambassadors, a Southern Baptist mission education organization serving elementary school boys. Hogan, who was at the BP refinery since late January as a supervisor for a unit of the Fluor Corp., retired from Sterling Chemical in 1999, Rebecca Hogan, his wife of 13 years, said. He divided his time since between part-time contracting work and his church-related activities.
"He also enjoyed visiting his father in rural Louisiana. They'd herd cattle, work on little projects together," Robinson said. "When I heard the blast I called the Texas Baptist Men and told them to pray," his wife said. "I said, 'That's where Danny is.' " On his message machine when he died was a request for him to join a relief mission to Sri Lanka to aid victims of the tsunami, his wife said. "I'm sure he would have gone," she added.
Daniel was born in Port Arthur, Texas and grew up in Aiken, S.C., where he graduated from Aiken High School in 1964. He attended Louisiana State University, served three years in the Army and, in 1968, went to work as an insulator at a Texas plant that was subsequently bought by Sterling Chemical. After his retirement, he moved to Glenmora, La., but kept his home in Texas City. Friends and relatives gathered there Friday. "Dan's heart was huge. His love of God was huge. His love of his fellow man was huge," said Delane DeVine, a family friend. He is survived by his wife; Rebecca Hogan; his parents, Daniel J. Hogan II and Maxine Hogan, of Glenmora, La.; two sons, Jason Robinson, of Santa Fe, and Joshua Robinson, of Burnsville, W.Va.; and four grandchildren.
