SOUTH BEND, IN - After a sudden illness, Martin Joseph Lohmuller, 67, died at the Center for Hospice Care in Mishawaka on December 13.

Born to Herbert Wendel and Nora Genevieve (Lavins) Lohmuller in Philadelphia on December 29, he graduated from Bluffton High School in Bluffton, IN, and then received his degree in respiratory care from Kettering College in Ohio.

As a respiratory therapist, he worked for Memorial Hospital for 25 years and then joined Pulmonary and Critical Care Associates of South Bend. He also worked as an usher for the University of Notre Dame for 25 years where he especially enjoyed serving as captain of section 24 at every home football game.

He is survived by his wife of 39 years, Jean Ann (Jeannie); his stepson, Jeff (Linda) Hunter; daughters, Jenny (Jake) Christner and Lauryn, five grandchildren, and nine brothers and sisters.

A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart at Notre Dame on Friday, December 18 at 3:30 p.m. A celebration of Marty's life will take place at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in his honor to the American Lung Association.

My Dear Jeannie, I'm so very sorry to hear about Marty. I remember at the barn you and I sharing stories about our husbands and your description of him was what I had expected when I met him in the ER the time you tumbled off your favorite horse Dan. Marty made me feel like I was a longtime friend. Prayers to the newborn King to bless you and give you peace.

I knew Marty for about 15 years. He was very kind, gentle, compassionate and truly accompanied us in PFT procedure. Marty ALWAYS explained, demonstrated, and then did procedure with us thus lessening our anxiety resulting in the most optimal results in breathing evaluation. Thank you, Marty, and may the angels welcome you into Paradise. My condolences to his family and friends.
