Rex Gene Logan

December 12, 1931 - March 31, 2025

Rex Gene Logan, 93, passed away on March 31, 2025 at Home Hilltop Estates in Gothenburg, Neb.

Rex was born on December 12, 1931 in Belleville, Kan. to Allen and Muriel (Thompson) Logan.

Rex married Inez Burchett in 1959, they farmed southwest of Belleville until 1968. They moved to Fairmont, Neb. until retirement. Prior to moving to Gothenburg, Neb., where they would be closer to his daughter they lived in York, Neb.

Rex enjoyed gardening, traveling with his wife after retirement and in his later years. One thing he really enjoyed in his time at Hilltop was painting and he got great joy painting picture requests from the different employees. He also enjoyed playing checkers with the other residents, especially when he won! But he also taught others how to play checkers so they had a better chance with beating him.

Rex is survived by wife, Inez Christine Logan (Burchett); children, Linda (Scott) Bahe of Gothenburg, Neb., son, Richard (Nichole) Logan of Sugarland, Texas, Lance (Jamie) Logan of Longview, Texas; 12 grandchildren; 13 great-grandchildren; extended family and friends.
