Catherine Logan passed away at home May 6, 2025, at home with her loving son and caretaker at her side.

The third of seven children, Catherine was born February 12, 1938, in Worland, Wyoming to Glen and Lillian May (Russell) Brubaker.

Her family moved to Rawlins, Wyoming when she was young. She graduated from Rawlins High School in 1956. On June 10,1956 in Oklahoma, she married the love of her life, Robert “Bob” Logan. They lived at Ft. Huachuca, Arizona, while her husband was stationed in the Army there. From there they moved around briefly with his job as a seismic driller before they ended up in Wamsutter, Wyoming operating a Rawlins branch of the Ferguson’s Mercantile up until the early 1970s. They then opened the Wamsutter Café and ran it until 1978.

Catherine belonged to the Wamsutter Homemakers Club and loved to craft along with her family. She loved all her family very much and her many friends who she considered extended family. She also loved history and was always curious and amazed at the world around her. She had a wonderful sense of humor.

After they closed the Wamsutter Café they moved to Patrick Draw, Wyoming (I-80, MP 147) where Bob was the maintenance foreman and she contracted with the Wyoming Highway Department as caretake of the Bitter Creek Rest Areas for about 30 years.
