Thomas Louis Logan Sr.'s Obituary
Thomas Louis Logan Sr. passed away on Saturday, October 29, 2022 at the age of 89. He was born in Binghamton, NY on July 11, 1933 to Joseph W. Logan and Celia Lia Logan.

Tom proudly served 4 years in the Navy as a meteorologist in the Panama Canal Zone during the Korean War.
