He enjoyed good talks and coffee with neighbors and friends, had a love of cars and westerns, and always had a joke ready when needed.
Logan was a member of the First Reformed Church in Sully, Iowa.
Those left to cherish his memory are his two children: Wynette Terpstra of Maebashi, Japan, and Devin Terpstra of Omaha, Nebraska; and many family, friends, and neighbors.
He was preceded in death by his wife Twila, his parents Cornie and Corrie Terpstra, his parents-in-law William and Gertrude De Kock; his three brothers: Loren Terpstra, Harris Terpstra, and Stephen Terpstra; and brother-in-law Bob De Ruiter.

Plant a tree: How does it work
When your purchase is complete, a post will be made on the tribute wall of the deceased signifying the planting of a memorial tree.
An official certificate recognizing your purchase will be included with your email receipt. You can then forward the email to the family or print it and give it to them personally.
After an order is placed, our forestry partners will plant the tree in the area of greatest need (nearest the funeral home), according to the planting schedule for the year.
Due to seasonal conditions, the tree planting takes place during the spring and summer.
