The Best Machine (2011–2025)

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of The Best Machine, a beautiful and gentle soul sired by the legendary A Good Machine. Known to his loved ones as Logan, he brought light, kindness, and a quiet strength to everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.

Logan came to the Wysocki barn in the winter of 2024, already carrying the burden of an old injury that caused him great pain. Despite tireless efforts and veterinary care aimed at keeping him comfortable, it became clear that his time would be limited. In the most compassionate act of love, Logan was peacefully laid to rest last week to free him from his suffering.

Described as an “amazing, beautiful boy,” Logan touched many hearts during his short stay, leaving behind memories of his sweetness and quiet resilience. He spent his final months surrounded by care, compassion, and understanding—a true testament to the dedication of those who loved him most.

While his time was brief, Logan’s gentle spirit will not be forgotten. Rest easy, dear Logan, free from pain and forever remembered by those who loved and cherished you.

“Run free, Logan. Your spirit will always live on in our hearts.”
