Family pay tribute to ‘loving’ daughter killed in Bicester fire

The family of a firefighter killed in a blaze in Bicester last week have described her as a “loving, caring, thoughtful person” who was a “force to be reckoned with”.

Jennie Logan, 30, of Oxfordshire County Council’s Fire and Rescue Service, died in the major incident at Bicester Motion on Thursday alongside fellow firefighter Martyn Sadler, 38, and member of the public David Chester, 57.

In a statement released by Thames Valley Police, Ms Logan’s mother, father and sister Emilie said: “Jennie was a much loved daughter to us, her sister, Emilie, and ‘Mum’ to her beloved dog, Mouse.

“We still can’t believe we’ll never see her again, driving around Bicester collecting her dogs, which were like a second family.

“Also, at such a young age, setting up her own dog business and making it such a success, was truly inspirational to us all.

“She found her calling three years ago when she joined the fire service where she could use her incredible strength and determination.

“Jennie was a force to be reckoned with but to everyone who knew her, she was such a loving, caring, thoughtful person, who would do anything and everything to help.”
