Robert Arthur Logan

Robert Arthur Logan Age 88, of Braidwood, IL, passed away peacefully on July 9, 2025, at Sunny Hill Nursing Home in Joliet, IL. Born on July 2, 1937, in Cobden, IL, he was the son of Wilmer and Beulah (née Nance) Logan. On September 17, 1960, he married Judith Allen in Nason, IL, beginning a lifelong journey of love and devotion that spanned almost 65 years. Together, they built a beautiful life and a legacy of faith and family. A proud U.S. Army veteran, he served his country with honor and integrity from September 28, 1960, until September 27, 1966. Holding the rank of Specialist (Technician), he was both technically proficient and an expert marksman with rifle and carbine during his military service. His service during the Vietnam era was marked by courage, patriotism, and steadfast devotion to duty—qualities that defined not only his military career but his entire life. His life-membership in AMVETS, an organization dedicated to serving veterans and their families, was a reflection of his enduring commitment to those who served alongside him. He devoted 32 years of his career to Ford Motor Company, working as a union Dye Setter at the Ford Stamping Plant in Chicago Heights, IL, and was a proud member of the United Auto Workers (UAW). Robert enjoyed 17 years of playing in a golf league and was an avid bowler for the same length of time. He devoted time to coaching children in sports, and enjoyed camping as a longtime member of the Wooden Shoe Rainmakers Camping Club. Robert was also a faithful member of Island City Baptist Church in Wilmington, IL. Survived by his cherished wife, Judith Logan, son, Tye C. (Dalisay A.) Logan of Queen Creek, AZ. And daughter, Yvonne M. (Brian) Becker of Colfax, IL.; grandchildren, Clareesh (Michael) Zukowski, Danielle (Chris) Quanstrum, Ashley (Jon) Pawlik, Denn Angelo (Avianna) Aras, Craig Becker and Anna Becker; great-grandchildren, Miliana, Jace, Mia, River, Indie, Wes, Evalina, Mila, Avery, Noelle, Noah, Kevin, Addison and Landon; brothers, Melvin (Sally) Logan and Rodney (Geneva) Logan all of Ashley, IL; sister, Roberta (Billy) Muir of Nashville, IL; sisters-in-law, Jeannette Logan of Ashley, IL and Peggy Logan of Baskin, LA; brothers- and sisters-in-law; Barb Sandusky, Glenda (Gary) Chesney, Leslie Allen and Tim (Diane) Allen; and many nieces, nephews and cousins from both sides of the family that he cherished dearly.
