He was always ready with a smile or an argument, frequently bantering with his brothers. He liked to do things his way. Logan loved this family and his dog, Hades. He loved oatmeal and granola, and spent most of his time on his bike riding 60-80 miles a day, reading and hang. ing out with friends and family.

He was studying philosophy, with the intent of pursuing a degree in Law. He enjoyed trying new things and tossing around ideas with friends; he was always thinking and challenging himself. Logan's spirit led him on a pivotal trip to Alaska, where he met phenomenal people and returned home with a new perspective and course for life. It was that energy, enthusiasm and joy for life and that absorbed every, one enjoyed from him. A-5 GUTTER GUARD Leaves are falling to the ground AND into your gutters.
