Louis Raymond Luongo, age 88, of Marlton, passed away on December 30, 2017 at the Wiley Christian Retirement Community Center in Marlton, NJ with his loved ones by his side. He was born and raised in Newark, but resided in Berkeley Heights before retiring to Toms River. Lou graduated from Barringer High School in Newark and went on to earn his Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from Rutgers University. He attended the Georgetown School of Foreign Service and served in the Korean War as a lieutenant with the US Air Force in Psychological Warfare.  After the war, he began his career in sales at Inmont (United Technologies) in the Printing Inks Division. A few years later, he started and ran a successful company, Press King Distributers, Inc., in the same industry until the company sold during the mid 1980’s.

 

In retirement, Lou volunteered his time for Ocean Housing Alliance and as a civil mediator for the Superior Court. During his life, he traveled extensively with his wife, was an avid reader and enjoyed lively debate with friends and family. He and he wife also enjoyed many years of friendship with their wonderful friends Joe and Peg Alto.
