I am speechless. Omg! I just learned about Mr Loundy's passing a way. He was like a father and mentor for me since 1982. I have been in contact with him till 2021. Due to my health issues, i lost my contact. I am simply sad and shocked! May God give a strength his children, Donna, Irv and his entire family to deal with this sad event.

My sincere condolences to Donna and the Loundy family. I worked for Mr. Loundy as his secretary for a number of years, a wonderful boss and an honorable and kind person. He cared deeply about his family, the bank, the community, his temple and many charitable organizations and causes he helped over the years. May his memory be a blessing.

Condolences to Donna and the whole extended Loundy family. My parents (Shelly & Hal) adored Dick - my dad had utmost respect for him as a person, business man, fellow Beth Emet-er and friend. I was sad to hear of his death but he sure had a loving life. Like everyone, there were a few "challenges" along with all the ups, but he sure earned every up. My parents would say if they were here - "Dick, you had a good long life - it's time to rest". Humor was essential to them. Best thoughts and empathy.
