This week started here at International Coins & Currency with some sad news. The untimely passing of Cornelius “Con” Hogan, a current member of our board of directors and a past president. Con had been affiliated with ICC almost since the beginning and assumed the role of President in the early 1980s. He successfully guided our company through some of our most difficult times. I can say without reservation that Con was instrumental in our longevity and continued success.

Con left the daily operations at ICC to continue what was already a distinguished career in state government, working for several governors here in Vermont in many capacities including Health and Human Services Commissioner.

During my tenure here, now fast approaching 39 years, Con has been a dynamic figure that commanded respect simply by entering a room, and when he spoke it was in your best interest to listen.

Con was a mentor and a friend whom I will sadly miss. I feel blessed to simply have been affiliated with such an individual.

Rest in Peace.

Rick Thurston,
President,
International Coins & Currency Inc.
