Vale Captain Bill Hogg.
It is with sadness that we say farewell to Captain Bill Hogg, who passed away on the weekend. Bill was a legend of the Murray River, and one of Swan Hill’s true characters.
His love for the river was infectious and he always had time for a yarn, making him a favourite among Pioneer Settlement visitors and staff. The Pyap simply won’t be the same without him.
Bill’s service will be tomorrow 1.30pm at the Grain Shed in Swan Hill.
