Larry was born in Charles City March 30, 1952, the second of three children to Louis Robert and Doris Logan. He graduated from Charles City High School in 1970. Larry began his adult life serving our country as a U.S. Marine. Once he returned from the Vietnam War, Larry married his high school sweetheart, Rita. With nothing but their dreams and $900 to their name, the newlyweds packed up their 1974 Ford and moved to Orlando, FL, where their 47-year love story began.

Prior to retiring in 2017, Larry began his career working at Disney World for a short stint, before getting his start in the trucking industry. One of Larry’s favorite memories was taking his son, Josh, with him on cross country trucking trips. Larry went on to start his own trucking company, Logan Trucking. In 1998 Larry and Rita decided to move to the Carolinas. Larry went on to find success in the residential construction industry. While Larry had a very successful career, his greatest accomplishments were his children, Josh, and Brittany.

When Larry was not working, you could find him spending his time with his family, traveling, watching DYI shows, antique shopping, reading, or working on a home remodeling project. He was lovingly known as Bob the Builder by Rita.

Larry will be remembered for his quick wit, infectious smile, and his kind spirit. He was a loving husband, an amazing father and father-in-law, a compassionate brother, a fierce leader, a trusted friend, but his greatest fans will remember him as the world’s greatest Pops-his grandchildren.

Larry was preceded in death by his father, Louis Robert, and mother Doris. He is survived by his wife, Rita; son, Joshua and wife Megan; daughter, Brittany and fiancé, Jason Thompson; sister, Barbara Jones of Charles City; brother, Rodney and wife Judy, of Hamilton, New Jersey; step brother, Jay Greeszweig and wife Cindy; his four grandchildren, Isabella, Layan, Jacob Logan and Liam Thompson; one niece and four nephews.
