Christopher Hoban Run Sunday, 9/15
Sunday morning at 10:30 am.
RIP Officer Chris Hoban. If you have never been to this event, run down to Shore Road. It’s one of my favorite events in Bay Ridge.
Office Hoban lived in my old parish – OLPH. I was a kid when this happened and it was overwhelming to see thousands of people at his funeral. (Almost 8000 people attended Office Hoban and Office Buczek’s funeral – see here)
When Chris Hoban died in 1988, my mother told us that those responsible for his death should have received the death penalty. My mother was a devout Catholic – she never spoke about the penalty before that. My brothers were close to Chris’ age and attended Xaverian High School.
Kevin Faye was also from OLPH. He was a man loved by many. Adding Kevin Faye to the Hoban Cup was a very nice idea.
Hugs,
marlene
