Obituary: Becker, Logan Reid

Age 14

Sun., Aug. 16, 2015

BECKER, Logan Reid (Age 14) Jan. 16, 2001-Aug. 7, 2015 Spokane, WA - Our loving son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin and friend peacefully passed away with his Mom at his bedside on August 7th, 2015.

He was 14 years old.

Though his earthly life was short, he made a mark on all who knew him with his infectious personality, his sense of humor, and wits to prank anyone.

His presence will be greatly missed by all, but especially by his family.

Logan loved the outdoor life especially hunting and fishing.

He also loved baseball and of course video games.

Dogs always held a special place in his heart and he could never resist befriending any dog he came in contact with.

Until his last breath he displayed an ability to put all who were with him at peace with his cancer battle and eventual passing.

Some may call it bravery, perseverance, or courage, but those who knew him would just call it “Logan being Logan”.

In lieu of flowers we ask that donations be made in Logan’s honor to ACCOIN or The Anna Schindler Foundation, they were a great source of local support to our family and there are still many families in battles of their own that need support.

A service for Logan will be held on August 22nd at 11am at Life Center, 1202 W. Government Way, Spokane, WA 99224.
