Douglas Ralph Logsdon, age 62, passed peacefully after a long battle with cancer in his Sultan, Washington home on Thursday, August 20th.
Doug was born in Spokane, Washington on January 5th, 1953, the first son and second child of the late Robert Monroe and Nadine (Myers) Logsdon (now Bogart). He graduated from Shadle Park High School in 1971. He went on to earn a degree in Building Construction from the University of Washington in 1977. At UW, he met and married Colleen Smith on May 17th, 1980.
Doug worked in the construction industry for over 39 years, including 22 years as a Project Manager and Estimator at Sellen Construction. He was known as an exceptionally hard worker, and to many, the friendliest person ever. Doug was also known for his service to others. He was on the board at his church, hosted a monthly breakfast, and ran the sound for church services. He was also known for his love of sports, and to many was the most avid Husky fan people have ever known. If you asked Doug about his priorities, he would put Jesus first, serving others second, and sports third.
He is survived by his loving wife of 35 years Colleen, son Andrew (Kristin), and daughter Sarah, granddaughters Abigail and Kennedie, mother Nadine, brother Dean (DeeDee), sisters Lois Winters (Dick), Sue, and Betty Ishii (Tom), as well as six nieces, and two nephews.
Doug’s memorial service is scheduled for Saturday, September 5th, 2015 at 3pm, at the Seventh Day Adventist Church, 14118 Chain Lake Road in Monroe. Pastor Mac Taylor of Monroe Covenant Chruch is officiating.
Thank you Doug for being an amazing man, an amazing servant of God, and having a positive impact on everyone. We are all lucky to have had you in our lives, no matter the capacity. We love you and will miss you forever.
