Harold Loughry

William Harold Loughry, age 73 of Blacklick, passed away Wednesday, January 8, 2014. Harold was born in Kingwood, West Virginia and grew up in Columbus, son of the late Virgil and Lula Loughry. Also preceded in death by his children, Judy Werlinger and William Loughry, Jr., and grandson, Rick Crosby.
