His Life
August 23, 2013

Lew Logan was born April 24, 1927 and passed from this life on November 21, 2009.

He married Vernelle Fuhrman, the love of his life on October 14, 1950 and they were blessed with three children, He is survived by his wife and all three of us children and our spouses:

Terri Christiansen(and husband Vern Johns) of Canon City, Colorado,
Lance Logan (and wife Cindy Koetter Logan) of Norfolk, Nebraska, and Holli Sampson(and husband Kirk Sampson) of Omaha, NE. 

He is also survived by one sister, Mrs. Norma Pospisil of Pierce, NE.

Dad as an engineer on the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad for his career.  He was a man with a strong work ethic and it always seemed that no matter what he put his hand too, he mastered it well, except for the time when he tried to give himself a haircut - one can't be good at every single thing in life!  He could fix just about anything, or build about anything his mind just worked that way!

Flying was his passion.  Many people got their first airplane ride from Dad.  He loved to introduce others to flight and I think he got as excited as they did each time.  To see more about that please look under the stories section.  He also loved cars and loved to drive.

Dad was a great animal lover.  We always had multiple family pets and he(and Mom) taught us to love and respect each one as a member of the family.

Above all, Dad loved his wife and his kids.  In a world where fathers appear to be so under rated and ignored, I know that all three of us kids are so thankful for the dad we were given.  He taught us so much and spent time with us and invested of himself.  He was a very loving man.  He would have laid down his life for his family.

He always had time to help others and often was the first in the family to help another family member, whether is was a sibling, a parent, nieces, nephews or his children.  He was that way with neighbors too.  Dad was not a rich man where money was concerned but he was a very rich man in caring about others.  

I always tell people that Dad is not lost, he's just away because I know where he is.  One day we will see each other again.  Until then all the memories keep him close to all of us who knew him.
