Getting an image/logo to appear in a php email

I am trying to add my companies logo inside of a php email that I will be sending out to customers after they order. However, it is not working. The actual link to my image is a public url.

What am I doing wrong?

    $logoImage = 'https://example.com/images/BFBlogo1.gif';     

// Prepare the Email
$to = $email;
$subject = 'Your Example order'.  $AuthorrizeResponseText;  transaction Id or invoice #, however you set it up as.
$message = '<img src="'.$logoImage.'">';
$message = 'Thank you for ordering with us! ';
$from = "[email protected]";
$cc = "[email protected]";

// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

// Additional headers
$headers .= 'To: ' .$to. "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: ' .$from. "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Cc: '.$cc. "\r\n";

// Send the email
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);

My second attempt:

$message = '<img src="'.$logoImage.'">';
$message .= 'Thank you for ordering with us! ';

You forgot to concate:

$message = '<img src="'.$logoImage.'">';
$message = 'Thank you for ordering with us! '; // here $message is overwrtting.

Should be like this:

$message = '<img src="'.$logoImage.'">';
$message .= 'Thank you for ordering with us! ';

Update

logoImage = 'https://example.com/images/BFBlogo1.gif';     

// Prepare the Email
$to = $email;
$subject = 'Your Example order'.  $AuthorrizeResponseText;    
$message = '<img src="'.$logoImage.'">';
$message .= 'Thank you for ordering with us! ';
$from = "[email protected]";
$cc = "[email protected]";

// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";

// Additional headers
$headers .= 'To: ' .$to. "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: ' .$from. "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Cc: '.$cc. "\r\n";

// Send the email
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);

You set the image tag:

$message = '<img src="'.$logoImage.'">';

But then on the very next line you overwrite it:

$message = 'Thank you for ordering with us! ';

Maybe you meant to concatenate instead?:

$message .= 'Thank you for ordering with us! ';

Please note also that if nearly the entire body of the message is an image then I wouldn't be at all surprised if the mail is treated as spam by almost any system that looks at it.
