Dear Barbara,

Please accept my condolences on the passing of your husband Harmon. I will be most happy to share this information with college district retirees by placing it on the VCCCDRA Retirees’ Association website (vcccdra.org). It is very nice to know of your association with the Ventura College Nursing Program and to know of the outstanding work that the Ventura College trained nurses provided your husband, and congratulations on your achievements as an employee of the district.

I mention the passing of my husband, Harmon Cogert on December 11, 2018 because my family and I have established a Nursing Scholarship with the VC Foundation in his memory. He was fortunate to have received the finest care from RN’s; former grads and current students of the Ventura College Nursing program where I worked as an Administrative Assistant for 15 years. As a former Classified Senate President and the first VCCCD employee to receive the Board of Governors/Chancellor’s Office Classified Employee of the Year in 2011, Harmon supported me in all my endeavors to serve Ventura College and it’s students.

Thank you.

Barbara,

I’m so sorry to learn of the passing of your husband Harmon. Would it be all right if I passed this on to VCCCD retirees? If you have an obituary or information you would like me to share on our website (vcccdra.org), please send me the information. Could you also say something about yourself and your association with the college district. Thank you.

Rene

My husband (Harmon Cogert) passed away on December 11 after a long battle with COPD and other lung issues.   Not the greatest time of the year to be in mourning.
