Publish in a newspaper
Don received his Bachelor's Degree in Marketing from Loyola University. He was a U.S. Army Veteran serving in Korea in the late 1960s where he ultimately attained the rank of Captain. Don spent his entire career with JC Penney. In 1991 he moved to Winchester and served as store manager at the Apple Blossom location until his retirement in 2004. He was a parishioner at Sacred Heart of Jesus Catholic Church where he was a member of the Sacred Heart Seniors. Don was a former 25-year member of the Winchester Rotary Club and a lifelong member of the NRA. He enjoyed woodworking, trains, and cruising in his Miata with the top down. He loved history especially anything about the Civil War. Above all, he loved his family and enjoyed spending time with his grandchildren.
Don married Patricia Carney on June 4, 1962 in New Orleans.
Along with his wife Patricia, Don is survived by his two sons Donald J. "Tripp" Louque III (Beth) and Robert W. "Bobby" Louque; grandchildren Samantha, Henry, Donald "Joe" IV, Margaret, Charles and George; his three sisters Marilyn Williams (Travis), Karen Sands (Paul) and Julie Louque; and his beloved cat "Pep" who refused to leave his side during his final days.
In addition to his parents, Don was preceded in death by his son James Robert Louque.

Don was a great friend and the first to call me after retirement. We shared many great times at our meetings when we both worked in the same district with JC Penney.
Thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Good man & a loyal, dedicated JCPenney Associate. My visits to the Winchester store he managed were enjoyable because he did his job as Mr. Penney anticipated from his finest.
