Members of the Hogan family and Burns family are extending their heartfelt thanks to all those friends, family and neighbors who contributed their time, and/or donated to the Hero for Owen Fundraiser on May 10 at the former Boystown facility in Kearny. In a joint statement, the families said: “We would like to recognize the local businesses who were an integral part of making this event a complete success, and without whom we could not have done this.”
Two-year-old Owen Hogan, son of a New York City firefighter, was diagnosed last year with severe aplastic anemia and was in need of a bone marrow transplant and blood transfusions.
