He was a leading figure on behalf of farming in Massachusetts, particularly for immigrant farmers from Cambodia, whom he assisted as part of the New Entry Sustainable Farming Project.
John served as New Entry's first mentor farmer and dedicated acreage of his property to help Cambodians begin farming. He gave production advice, helped put up a shed and greenhouse, and often did not collect the rents. John's family and brother, Jim Ogonowski, are still actively involved in the project and assist to keep the farmers on their land to preserve John's memory.

He went to a school at Keith Academy, Lowell, and was a pilot in the U. S. Air Force during the Vietnam War, flying C-141 transport aircraft.

Founded by the Xaverian Brothers religious order, an order that is heavily influenced by the Jesuit’s.

On the 17th September 2003, in article entitled Flight 11 crew not forgotten by Sally Applegate a correspondent for the Georgetown Record, stated: American Airlines Captain Walter Sorenson of Groveland was scheduled to fly Flight 11 on Sept. 11, 2001. He was disappointed when he was replaced by Captain John Ogonowski, who had seniority over Sorenson and requested to fly that day.
At first reading this might not seem that odd, Ogonowski might had needed the cash and wanted to do some extra over time, but that certainly wasn’t the reason.
In fact there's no way John Ogonowski wanted to fly on September 11th, as on that day many special people were coming to tour his dozen acres of Asian crops flourishing amid the hay and pumpkins at White Gate Farm.
Ogonowski and his wife Peggy, a former American Airlines flight attendant, had hosted such events before, and he told project director Hugh Joseph he would 'do his best' to be around for that one.
Then the very night before 9/11 Hugh Joseph got a call from Peggy saying: Listen, John’s not back yet, but he got the final word that he has to fly tomorrow. He can’t switch.
Who on earth would have insisted Ogonowski flew Flight 11? Here he was show-casing an event on day of 9/11.
Prior to 9/11, Flight 11 was no out of the ordinary flight, it was as normal and as common as a Greyhound bus journey, - you would have thought a number of his friends and work colleagues would have been more than willing to stand in for him.
What's even more odd, is that he all of a sudden telephoned the scheduled pilot Captain Walter Sorenson and pulled rank on him insisting he fly instead of him.
Ogonowski was an ex-military man, is it possible he was assigned as a secret serviceman-come-spook who was on a retainer, and kind of 'sleeper' until the order ever came in for him to do whatever it was ordered for him to do.
Why else would he cancel such as important personal event to him and insist to fly someone elses shift?
Could such a person be living somewhere like Asia, Cambodia, Vietnam or the Thailand areas? Many an ex-serviceman live out there and an whole array of people living under various pseudonyms for one reason or another are in secret hideaways, you would have thouht anyone connected to 9/11, would probably be dead/killed or well looked after.
Many marriages end in divorce and often children are involved, though to both them, their father and her husband died a hero on 9/11.
Ogonowski’s body was never found, and has never been formally identified.
