Lilamerle Logan, eighty-nine, passed away in the Weatherford Hospital on

Oklahoma, and was the youngest of eight children of George and Dovie Ann 
Allen.  She was preceded in death by her parents and all of her four sisters 
and three brothers.

Lilamerle graduated from Leedey High School, class of 1920, and was married

retirement in 1965.  Her husband "Doug" died in 1972, and in 1981 she moved 
from Cheyenne to Weatherford.

Lillamerle, a member of the First Baptist Church of Leedey, was always 
active in church work.  As a young woman in the 30's she served for many 
years as pianist for the First Baptist Church of Leedey, and in later years 
she was a Sunday School Teacher in the First Baptist Church at Cheyenne.
