STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Dennis G. Logue, 87, of Great Kills, a retired Port Authority police Sergeant, security supervisor and Korean War veteran whose family was his greatest joy, died Sunday at home.

Born in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, he graduated from Fort Hamilton High School in 1947. He lived in his native community until 1967, when he moved to Great Kills.

Mr. Logue briefly served as a seaman recruit in the U.S. Navy, then served in the U.S. Army, seeing duty in Korea during the war. He attained the rank of sergeant.

He earned an associate of arts degree from St. Peter's College, Jersey City.

Mr. Logue was a sergeant in the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey Police, and later was a security supervisor for the New York Mets. He retired in 1982.

He had a wonderful sense of humor and loved to tell jokes and make people laugh, his family said. He also was kindhearted, and cared about people's feelings.

Mr. Logue most enjoyed spending time with his family. He was fond of his dog and cat, loved poetry, and liked to reminisce about growing up in Brooklyn, sharing his stories with family and friends.

He was a parishioner of St. Clare's R.C. Church, Great Kills.

His wife of 44 years, the former Helen M. Lynn, died in 2006.

Surviving are his son, Paul; his daughter, Beth Logue; his sister, Isabelle (Patsy) Fusco, and two grandchildren.

The funeral will be Wednesday from the Casey McCallum Rice South Shore Funeral Home, Great Kills, with a mass at 11 a.m. in St. Clare's Church. Burial will follow in Resurrection Cemetery, Pleasant Plains.
