Mrs. Grace Redd Logan was one of ten children born to the late Mr. Vernon "V. D." and Mrs. Lucy Redd on September 26, 1945. She departed this life early on the morning of August 4, 2021. She was preceded in death by two sisters: Eva Russell and Inez Washington. Grace confessed Christ at an early age and became a member of the Pleasant Grove Missionary Baptist Church. She was a faithful member and was President of the Mother's Board, until her health began to fail. On May 8, 1965, Grace united in holy matrimony to the love of her life, John E. Logan, Sr whom she affectionally called Johnny. To this union, two children were born, five grandchildren, and seven great-grandchildren. Grace was a woman who loved her husband, children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. As a wife, she built her home and loved Johnny with all her heart; their marriage of 56 years is a model that many couples will strive to achieve. As a mother, she will forever be honored by her children; they rise daily and call her blessed, she is the quintessential Proverbs 31 woman; her life has been a blessing to many. Grace was affectionally known as Nanny and Granny, a role she cherished and thrived in. Her grands loved her dearly. She had an impeccable memory and she never forgot a birthday or an occasion. She made sure her grands knew they were loved. Grace also loved her sibling, nieces and nephews. She loved her church, and everyone who came in contact with her. Grace was a faithful member of the NAACP, and the Rankin County Federation of Democratic Women. She devoted a lot of her time to voter's registration and taking care of her community.
