Logan Whitsitt's Obituary
In Loving Memory of Logan Whitsitt
(May 31, 2001- June 14, 2023)
It is with profound sadness that we mourn the loss of Logan Whitsitt, a remarkable young man who graced this world with his presence for too short a time. Born on May 31, 2001, Logan's radiant spirit departed from us on June 14, 2023, leaving behind a trail of beautiful memories and a legacy of love and compassion.
Logan was a graduate of Broken Arrow High School, where his warm smile and caring nature endeared him to classmates and teachers alike. Known for his gentle demeanor and genuine kindness, he was a friend to everyone he met. Logan's big heart and willingness to help others were evident in his daily actions, making him a true role model for those fortunate enough to know him.
Music was Logan's soulful sanctuary, providing him solace and inspiration throughout his journey. His passion for music extended beyond mere enjoyment; he immersed himself in the world of vinyl records, curating a collection that reflected his eclectic taste and appreciation for different genres. With every crackle and note, he found solace and expression, his love for music resounding within his very being.
When not lost in the melodies of his records, Logan would often be found diving into digital realms, exploring the immersive landscapes of video games. These virtual adventures ignited his imagination and allowed him to connect with friends, sharing experiences and forging bonds. His competitive spirit, combined with his love for storytelling, made every gaming session an adventure in itself.
Beyond his hobbies, Logan possessed an extraordinary love for his family. He embraced his role as an uncle with unbridled enthusiasm, creating treasured memories for his nieces and nephews. His caring nature and ability to see the world through their eyes made him their hero, and he showered them with love, laughter, and support. As an uncle, he proved that love knows no bounds, and his impact on their lives will be felt for generations to come.
Logan's compassion knew no limits, extending to both people and animals. His heart overflowed with empathy, and he always sought to make a positive difference in the lives of others. His home became a haven for friends in need, where he provided them with love, care, and a sense of belonging. Logan's nurturing spirit was a testament to his character, reminding us all of the profound impact one person can have on the lives of the voiceless and vulnerable.
Logan was survived by his mother and step-father; Leanne (Mahan) and Reid VanOrsdol; father: Kirk Whitsitt; sister and brother in-law Zach and Mallory Freeman, their three children, Hadley, Mackenzie and Grey, grandparents, Clifford and Dolores Mahan; uncles and aunts; Clint and Karen Mahan and their children, Samantha and Tyler; Tom and Cindy Carriker and their children Cale and Kyle; Holy Whitsitt Cowden and her children, Ashley Billingsly, Hannah Billingsly, Corey Billingsly and his son Luke; Mike and Jennifer Vanderventer and their son Levi.
Though Logan's time with us was far too brief, his memory will forever be etched in our hearts. His infectious laughter, boundless love, and unwavering kindness will continue to inspire us to be better versions of ourselves. While we mourn his physical absence, we take solace in knowing that his spirit will forever guide us, reminding us to be compassionate, selfless, and to cherish every precious moment. Rest in peace Logan, and may your beautiful soul find eternal peace.
A private family memorial will take place at a later date.
