Read More	Jackson "Jack" Lee Logan, 85, of Fort Atkinson, WI, died Wednesday, January 22, 2020 at his long-time home and business, Black Hawk Senior Residence. Cause of death was complications related to strokes. Jack Logan was born December 10, 1934 in Washington, Iowa, the youngest of eight children of Allen Logan and DeIna (Buhrman) Logan. Jack graduated from Washington High School, Class of 1953. He attended Iowa State Teachers College, Cedar Falls, Iowa, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree and Master of Arts in Industrial Arts in 1957. He married the love of his life, Iowa farmgirl Sharon Kay Griggs, on April 10, 1955. They were high school sweethearts and spent the next 64 years of wedded bliss together. Jack and Sharon had two children, Timothy "Tim" Logan and Paul "Andrew" Logan. After graduating from college, Jack and Sharon both were teachers. Jack taught industrial arts at McKinstry Junior High School in Waterloo, Iowa, for one year. He always said it was not his calling, so he joined the Army. Jack enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1958 and served at the Pentagon from 1958 to 1960. He remained in the Reserves until 1967 and rose to the rank of First Lieutenant. After his honorable discharge, Jack worked for the U.S. Government in Washington, D.C., first for the Food and Drug Administration, then for the U.S. Postal Service, until 1973. While in Washington, they remodeled three homes on Capitol Hill. In 1983, while traveling to a jobsite in Whitewater, WI, Jack noticed the historic, albeit dilapidated, historic Black Hawk Hotel, one of the anchors of Fort's Main Street Historic District. Partnering with his brother, Jay Logan and Jay's wife Mavis, Jack and Sharon purchased and managed the Black Hawk Restaurant and Lounge. In 1991, with the help of the SBA and the wisdom of John McKenzie of the Bank of Fort Atkinson (now Johnson Bank), they converted the Black Hawk Hotel to a Community Based Residential Facility, now Black Hawk Senior Residence, that also served as their home. Jack served on the Fort Atkinson Historic Preservation Commission. Jack was a ham radio enthusiast most of his life. Later, he developed an avid interest in genealogy and was instrumental in researching his family tree along with his nephew Michael Jones. Jack was an early adopter of DNA analysis to further research into the Logan line. Jackson L. Logan was preceded in death by his parents, Al and DeIna Logan; seven brothers and sisters, Theo, Kathryn, Maxine, Margery, John, James and Jay; six brothers and sisters-in-law, Clarence Shew, R. Paul Clark, Rhea (Buck) Logan, Carlin Jones, Mavis (Williamson) Logan and Ada (Schwenke) Logan. He is survived by his wife Sharon and son Andrew Logan, both of Fort Atkinson; son SFC Tim Logan, stationed on active duty with the US Army Reserve in Sumner, Washington; four namesakes; his closest friends Doug Moreland of Elkhorn and Deanne "Dee" Spolum of Madison; favorite near-daughters-in-law Carol Ochsner of Monroe and Debbie Thurber of Ashland; and many nieces and nephews.
