Fundraiser for family of Byron man killed in Polo car crash

BYRON, Ill. (WTVO) — A fundraiser has been started for the family of Logan Linker, 21, who was killed in a weekend car crash in rural Polo.

According to the Ogle County Sheriff’s Office, Logan Linker was headed southbound on Union Road around 6:53 a.m. on Saturday, March 29th, when he ran a stop sign at Judson Road, losing control of his vehicle and entering a ditch before overturning multiple times.

Authorities said Linker was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash.

According to his obituary posted by the Preston-Schilling Funeral Home, at 213 Crawford Avenue in Dixon, “Logan loved his truck, hunting, fishing, and working on cars. To know Logan was to know a tough guy with the biggest heart. He loved his job and spending time with his many friends. He has left behind a lasting legacy and will be dearly missed by all who had the privilege to know & love him.”
