Deepest condolences in your time of sorrow. We will miss Bill's bright smile and gentle ways. You are a beautiful family, wonderful neighbors. Bill always had a gentle, usually humorous, comment whenever we met him over the back yard fence. May he continue smiling down on the family he loved so much.

To the Logue, Middleton Families,

Our sincerest condolences on the loss of Billy.

I was lucky enough to meet Billy over forty years ago. I remember that blonde hair, great smile and gregarious personality. I also remember all the "girls" liked it too. We worked together for a time in the restaurant business. I was able to watch him grow as a man and later as a husband and Father. In later years I knew of his heroic battles with health issues. Even though I no longer live in Buffalo I was able to keep up with him through his Family, Mary and Joe.

I will always be remember Billy and those memories will always bring a smile to my face. Rest in Peace my Friend.

Worked with Bill in the wholesale liquor business many years ago. Bill was an honest and sincere person. Very passionate about the business. Never missed calling my wife and I on our birthdays. Always will remember calling his children on Christmas Eve pretending to be Santa. Rest In Peace Bill

Billy was always up for a good time and a great story.

Our family has always enjoyed our time together in Honey Harbour, chatting, gossiping, and listening to Big Band Saturday nights.

We'll miss Billy and will always cherish the memories we made with him.

Our sincerest condolences to Bill's family. My husband and I met Billy at Shango's many years ago. He was a funny and kind man who truly loved his family. He loved to talk about food and wine and we probably stayed too long at the bar (or at the wine store) just chatting with him. He had a great memory for names and faces which was super impressive. Billy will be missed by all who knew him.

Billy was one of the lynch pins in the Buffalo hospitality scene and a good friend. He was the consummate professional, committed to his job and enlivening the restaurant experience of every patron he served. But more than that, Billy inspired his co-workers to a new level of service. He was an inspiration, a leader, and a wonderful man. He will be missed.

Can hear his laugh after a quick sharp-witted aside...that laugh will be with us always. Knowing him has made us both better people. Deepest condolences to Pam, Eliza, Liam and the entire Logue crew. You are all amazing people and at least part of that is because Bill Logue was in your life. A toast to Bill.

Billy´s passing leaves pain in its wake to be sure. It is tempered for me- and certainly all in my family- to have spent a great deal of time in the roiling wake that he created in his life - his laughter and laugh making, generosity of spirit and a dogged stamina while navigating medical challenges for so many years, dignity fully intact.
He did it all with verve, style and with an eye toward the timeless grace that is implied while serving others. Besides the food and wine bit, his service extended to making quick friends of seemingly disparate folks, bringing out the best in others´ and helping out anyone truly in need of a hand or en ear.

He was comfortable alluding to Marx (Groucho AND Karl, giving equal consideration on merits) or Lennon or Lenin, possibly in same sentence for good measure.

Heartfelt sympathies to the Middleton/Logue clans - but just as importantly to those friends in WNY/Ontario whose lives´ were made more full by having Billy and Pam´s love touch us, and include us, for so many good year and great times.

Billy was the Best!!!! From the moment we met working as busboys at Mulligan's on Hertel, out and about in Buffalo's bars and restaurants to commenting on politics during the last election, Billy was always thinking of a better World. I will miss his smile and his friendship. Billy would be in the hospital or at home recovering and he would send me a message or like my comments, we saw the world with the same hope. Love to Pam, Eliza, Liam, and the entire Logue Family. Gone too soon. Condolences.
