It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of our dear friend, Mr. David Hogan Jr.

David was a staunch supporter and beloved friend of the Sandakan Borneo Bird Club for many years and right from the early days of the Borneo Bird Festival. His passion and dedication played a real part in promoting birdwatching across Asia, particularly in Sabah.

Our friendship with him will last forever, and he will be dearly missed. Gone but never forgotten. 🕊️Thank you for your time with us David.

Our deepest condolences to his family during this difficult time. May he rest in peace.
