Liana's maternal grandfather, O.D. Loggins, was a full blooded Cherokee
Indian. Born on November 24, 1917 and died on November 24, 2005, which
fell on Thanksgiving day that year. He was the greatest influence in
Liana Loggins life. Liana cared for him until the day he died. Liana
took his last name, Loggins, because he raised her and he meant the
world to her and her daughter
Sumer Loggins.
