Marguerite was one of the first women to graduate from Texas A&M, in 1969, when she earned her Master’s Degree. She was so proud of her Aggie ring, and we were so proud of her!

She was preceded in death by her son, John Randolph Logan, and her daughter, Laura Anne Logan-Cearley, her sister, Eleanor Vivona, her first husband, Walter "Ron" Logan (who died in 1960), her second husband, Joseph French, an infant brother, and her parents, Robert C. and Marguerite K. Bicknell.
