SALINA- Clinton Ray Logan passed away unexpectedly Saturday, March 22, 2025. He was born July 29, 1961 in Belleville, Kansas, to Alice J. and Kenneth R. Logan. Clint was a graduate of Scandia High School in 1979, Scandia, KS, and a graduate of Kansas Wesleyan University in 1983.
One thing his family remembers most about Clint was that he was a hard worker and took great pride in every single thing he did. He loved to be up and moving and working with his hands. He could never stomach an office job so he accordingly worked at an old print shop in Salina as a copy repairman and day to day store employee after college. After that, he spent the majority of his career as the head of the beer department at Brooke’s Liquor in Salina stocking shelves dressed to the nines, how he thought everyone should dress for work.
Working hard at his job was important to him, but he always said the best thing he ever did was to raise his family. Not many knew Clint, or really knew him. He lived a quiet and hidden life really only known to his immediate family. It was a life of love, sacrifice, and virtue, instilling it to those nearest to him through his words and most importantly his example.
In his family time he loved playing cards, going on walks, reading in any spare time, watching clips of movies or listening to music, having bubble blowing competitions with his daughter, and just sitting and being. He lived his life by the phrase “less is more” and was captivated by the simple things in life. His weird kitchen creations and late night wanderings will be deeply missed.
Although he never belonged to a church he was a good and faithful servant of God and was known for smiling and saying “It’s going to be a great day; God made it!”. He always said we have been gifted a short time here on this garden and we have to make the most of it.
Clint is survived by his wife of 25 years, Teresa Logan of their home in Salina, and his daughter, Robyn Logan of Manhattan, KS, and two sisters: Lora Wiruth of Cuba, KS, and Cynthia Meehan of Titusville, FL.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Alice and Kenneth Logan.
