Saturday

I talked to Tim and Tom briefly this evening. Tom has been staying with Louise while they have been making funeral arrangements. He is obviously very emotional. Dad also was able to reach him and they shared a brief conversation. I offered to take Dad to LR tomorrow or Monday but he thinks it will just take too much out of him. Continue to pray for the Logues.

Below is an email forwarded to me from Rita Spillyards from Ray Higgins to the CBF email list...Thanks Rita and Ray.

John William Logue, 51 of Little Rock, passed from this life on Thursday, June 25, 2009. He was born February 20, 1958 in Little Rock, Arkansas to Dr. Tom Logue and Ethel Garrott Logue.

As a young boy growing up, he was devoted to his brother, Tommy, who had Muscular Dystrophy. He spent many hours playing chess, and other games and racing his brother in the wheelchair. In his extended family, he was always thought of as the most helpful and caring one.

John’s sensitivity and kindness showed in his lifelong love of animals.
Whenever possible, John owned a pet and cherished each one in a very special way.

John was a client of GAIN, Inc., (Greater Assistance to those In Need). His family acknowledges gratitude to his case manager, Eugene Meyer.
