Logan Flood

Logan Tyler Flood, age 22, of Peekskill, died on Saturday, March 27, 2015. Flood fought substance abuse for eight years of his short life. He experienced many periods of success, during which he was fully himself, a kind, intuitive, strong and generous young man. Ultimately he lost his battle, and is now another heartbreaking reminder of the heroin epidemic in this country.

He leaves behind his parents, Kathleen Pemble and Charles Flood, his brother, Giliean Pemble Flood, his grandmother, Lois Pemble, and many aunts, uncles and cousins.

Flood was born on Aug. 15, 1992, in Manhattan. He was a devoted music enthusiast and could play a little something on any instrument he picked up. He had a curious nature and was a defender of others in need. He attended Haldane and graduated from Peekskill High School.

A Memorial Gathering for Flood has been scheduled for Wednesday, April 1, at St. Mary’s Parish Hall, 1 Chestnut St. in Cold Spring (at the corner of Routes 9D and 301/Main St).

Family, friends and others are welcome from 2 to 4 p.m. and 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. The service will be held in the Parish Hall at 7 p.m. A reception will follow.

Flood was an organ donor and has already saved lives by making that choice. In lieu of flowers, donations should be sent to donatelifeny.org/contribution.

  1. We lost our baby brother because of addiction. He was hit by a car but it was drink that killed him. There aren’t enough words to say how sad I am. All addictions are hell on earth and they rob the person of life. You are in my prayers.

  2. Addiction respects no one. I am a survivor, one of many, and my heart & prayers go out to the Logansport family & friends. Peace & hugs.

  3. I’m so sorry and saddened by this loss. The epidemic is real and the victims are far beyond the people who are lost. I’m mostly sad for the family left behind to pick up the pieces. Hoping all find peace in this life and sending love and healing vibes to all who suffer from the horrors of opiate addiction. To Kathleen and family, I’m so sorry for your loss. There are just no words. I will hold space in my daily meditation and pray for healing and love to hold you all tight. In love and light always.
