Thomas A. Fogle, 84, of Owensboro, went to be with his sweetheart February 14, 2019, at Owensboro Health Regional Hospital. He was born February 13, 1935 in Stanley to the late Joseph and Catherine Krampe Fogle. Thomas served in the United States military as a member of the army. He was a charter member of St. Pius X Catholic Church, where he loved to make sure the lawn was manicured and visiting the daycare where he was known as “Mr. Fogo.” His world revolved around the St. Pius X cooking team, his true passion. Being a master of recipes and creating innovative cooking technology brought him the most joy. Thomas also enjoyed UK basketball, and watching NASCAR, being a fan of Dale Earnhardt. He cherished his time with his family, especially his grandsons.
