Fay Lafon Logan

Fay Lafon Logan, of Roanoke, our Earth Angel has taken flight on Saturday, July 18, 2020.  She was born in Giles County, Virginia and became a long time resident of Roanoke, VA., and a faithful member of Melrose Baptist Church since 1945.

Employed by the Roanoke City school system Food Services. She was an artist; seamstress; and the Author of the novel “Georgiana” ( A Virginia Family Saga) published in 2001 at the age of 83.  

During her life she was always ready to help those in need.  Our Mother was a very giving person with a multitude of friends.  She once told her Doctor, “I think I have an Enlarged Heart, I love too many people!”

Her appreciation of Music and the arts was evident.  After retiring she joined a group and ventured into oil painting at the age of 70. By doing so, she gifted many members of the family with Beautiful paintings.
