Ludlow, Harry Ralph
It is with great sadness that the family of Harry Ludlow announces his passing on Sunday, September 10, 2017, at the age of 68 after battling cancer. Harry will lovingly be remembered by his wife of 46 years, Denise (Zeiner); daughter Laura Staley and husband Robert; daughter Meagan McCord and husband Paul; grandchildren Nathan, Kayla, Drew, Mason and Quinn; sister Beth (Ludlow) Risk, and step-sisters Abby (Reasor) Miller and Paula (Reasor) Chaplin. He was preceded in death by his parents, Chester Ludlow and Maxine (Edmondson) Reasor. Harry spent his early childhood years in Ladoga, Indiana, and his family later moved to Roachdale, Indiana, where he graduated from Roachdale High School in 1967. He attended and graduated from Ball State University after completing his Bachelor of Science and Master of Arts degrees.
An avid fisherman, Harry enjoyed fishing lakes, rivers, and streams for bass, walleye, and trout. When not throwing a line, he also enjoyed snapping pictures, tying flies, playing golf and reading. Much of his career was spent in the tire industry in the states of Indiana, Ohio, and West Virginia, working for corporations such as Goodyear, Tire America, Michel Tire, and Tire Discounters, the latter of which he retired from in 2011. Harry and his wife moved to the Cincinnati area in 1996 and have remained in the area for the last 21 years. A memorial gathering will be held from 4:30pm to 6:30 on Friday, September 22. A toast to Harry will take place at approximately 5:45pm. The family will have a memory jar and requests that you share a favorite memory or story the family can read and treasure for years to come.
