Obituary for Richard W Loehe
RICHARD W. LOEHE
CAMDEN……………Richard William Loehe, 89, died on Friday, February 19, 2016 at Pen Bay Medical Center of pneumonia. Born on January 24, 1927, he was the son of Frank and Minnie Loehe who emigrated from Germany prior to his birth.
He grew up on a family farm in Glen Arm, Maryland, staying to work on the farm during WWII and then serving in Korea when his older brother returned from the war. During his teens, he exercised race horses before school at a Maryland race track.
He found a career with National Can Company in Maryland and became the Plant Manager of the Sparrows Point plant. Taking an early retirement, he, with his wife Maria, opened Parkville Antiques where they restored and sold antiques.
He was a very active member of the Kingsville-Perry Hall Lions Club and was the honored recipient of the Melvin Jones Fellowship award. He also volunteered his time at the Maryland School for the Blind.
In 1996, Richard (Dick) and Maria moved to Camden to be near their daughter and her family. He was a member of the First Congregational Church UCC in Camden.
Surviving is his wife of 60 years Maria H. Loehe; daughter, Lin Cushing and her husband Ray; two grandchildren, Ian Cushing and Haley Cushing, all of Camden; and he was the beloved uncle of 14 nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by a sister and a brother.
A memorial gathering will be held from 11:30am to 1:30pm, Saturday, February 27, 2016 at the Long Funeral Home, 9 Mountain Street, Camden. Interment will be held in Dulaney Valley Memorial Gardens in Lutherville-Timonium, MD, at a later date. Condolences may be shared with the family at www.longfuneralhomecamden.com.
