Our beloved son, Andrew Perry WELDON Hogue, lost his fight with cancer and died on the morning of June 9th at the age of 37 leaving his bereft parents Blane Hogue and Isobel Weldon Hogue and his much loved sister Clare in Australia. He will also be greatly missed by his dear friend Lucie Aounetse in Moncton.
Weldon was born in Calgary Alberta on August 25, 1988 and grew up with so many lifelong friends in Elbow Park and Marda Loop. After graduation from Western Canada High School he went to University of Lethbridge where again he made lifelong friends. He later moved to Vancouver where he studied at Vancouver Community College and started his career as a highly accomplished barber/stylist. He travelled extensively throughout Canada and the U.S. and went twice to Japan and several times to his father Blane’s homeland of Australia where there are many grieving cousins, uncles and aunts. He went with his parents almost every year since he was a baby to his mother Isobel’s birthplace in New Brunswick and spent time in the summer with family in Shediac and Moncton. In 2023 he moved permanently to Moncton where Blane and Isobel had moved to in 2019. There he worked first at the great Rock and Razors Barbershop and then with the amazing team at Handsome Devils Barbershop.
Weldon leaves to mourn his family and friends in Riverview and Sackville NB and Halifax NS, and his many friends in Calgary, especially Evangelos Lambrinoudis and Mike Cashion, and in Vancouver Sally and Owen plus former spouse Hana Allen, and his many friends in Moncton, especially his very supportive colleagues at Handsome Devils Barbershop who were so outstanding during Weldon’s final illness.
Blane and Isobel wish to extend grateful thanks to Dr. A. Robbins, Dr. M. Harb and Dr. Doucette, plus the incredibly caring nurses, staff and volunteers at the Moncton Oncology Clinic, the Moncton ER, and the Palliative Care nurses and staff. They each made this awful journey a bit easier.
Weldon’s family will be receiving relatives and friends on Sunday, June 14, 2026 from 2:00pm to 4:00pm at Cobb’s Funeral Home, 330 Whitepine Road, Riverview.
Flowers are respectfully declined and if desired a donation can be made in Weldon’s name to PAW, Moncton, or do as Weldon would and perform a random act of kindness in his memory.
