A Tribute to John Logue
Dr. John Logue of Kent State University and the Ohio Employee Ownership Center passed away December 8, 2009 shortly after a cancer diagnosis. We are saddened by the loss of not only a great leader in the employee ownership community but also a good friend.
For those of you who knew John, he was a steadfast proponent of ESOPs and employee ownership and his work has led to the creation of new jobs and the preservation of companies in Ohio that would have otherwise closed.
We want to take a moment to honor John and the work that he has done to help build the ESOP community and make it strong. A note on the Kent State website is here and tribute blog has also been set up for people to leave their thoughts.
On Sunday December 13, a viewing will be held at the Redmon Funeral Home in Stow, OH from 12:00 noon – 4:00 pm.

On Monday December 14, at 3:30 pm, a Memorial Service will be held in Kent State University’s Kiva Auditorium at the Kent Student Center. KSU’s Political Science department will provide light snacks at a reception in the Kiva lobby after the service.
