Tom (aka "Tex") Logan was a steel guitar playing bachelor and former chef at the Sea Spray Inn in East Hampton. He was eventually fired and came to live with the Beales for approximately nine years as a pseudo carpenter/maintenance man/cook/caretaker. Tom and Big Edie may have been lovers (he was reportedly infatuated with her). He had a drinking problem, and would often leave the home to hitchhike around town for short periods of time. After another absence, he came back to Grey Gardens very ill; a week later, he died of pneumonia in the kitchen. His ghost is said to have haunted Grey Gardens, and Little Edie often blamed the spirit for mysterious happenings in the house. He is buried at Cedar Lawn Cemetery in East Hampton.
