Logan came into our lives on August 20th, 2003 in Edmond, Oklahoma and was called to the Lord on October 1st, 2017 surrounded by the love and presence of his parents and siblings at home. Logan was welcomed into heaven by his paternal great-grandfather Ivan Shoffner, paternal great-grandparents Edmond & Eileen Logan, aunt Jennifer Shoffner, maternal great-grandparents John & Marietta Stone and by his maternal great-grandparents Bob & Margaret Lipscomb. Logan is survived by Chris and Emily Shoffner whom feel very honored and blessed to be his parents. Also, survived by his adoring siblings and best friends, Sarah Mae and Ty Shoffner. Along with his paternal great-grandmother Monica Shoffner, paternal grandparents Robert & Sharon Shoffner and maternal grandparents Dan & Marilyn Lipscomb; as well as many relatives and friends.
Logan was born with a rare, life-threatening genetic disorder called MECP2 Duplication. Although he only lived fourteen years on earth; Logan was fearfully and wonderfully made and fulfilled his life’s purpose through the glory of God (Psalm 139:14). Logan taught all of us the true meaning of unconditional love and how to ‘celebrate who we are’. Logan’s smile and eyes communicated love. Logan graduated from 8th grade at Cimarron Middle School in Edmond, Oklahoma in May 2017. Logan found joy in all things Sesame Street. He loved watching the best parts of movies over and over again, listening to books being read to him in a character’s voice, his Big iPad and his loveys, interacting with friends and family, being outdoors, swinging on the swing, splashing in the water, and sipping on his Dr. Pepper. But most of all he loved his sister and brother.
Services will be held at St. Monica’s Catholic Church – 2001 N. Western Ave., Edmond, OK 73012 – on Friday, October 6th, 2017 at 2:00 p.m. (There are three cry rooms available for viewing of the service with small children if needed).

Emily & Chris, Danny & Marilyn and Angie,
We were so sorry to hear about Logan. What a precious little guy he was! I remember when he came to Sunset. Emily was so good at making sure Logan was taken good care of. I remember Marilyn always talking about him when I would see her. I know you miss him dearly. The day will come when you all will be joined with Logan again. What a day of rejoicing that will be!
Angie gave me the info to send a donation. Thank you Angie. It was easy to do!
Love all of you and we are praying for God’s peace and comfort for you.
Love,
Mark and Vickie Carson
