To The Lohmeyer Family:
I was saddened to learn of Prof. Lohmeyer's passing. I was an undergraduate student at the University of Southern Maine (School of Business, Economics & Management) in 1980 when I took my first Marketing class, taught by your husband/father/brother/grandfather. Because of Prof. Lohmeyer's passion and command of the subject, I decided right then that Marketing would be my chosen profession. That began a 21 year career at Unum, working entirely in Marketing & Product Development. The pinnacle of my career was becoming the Chief Marketing Officer at both Cigna and The Hartford insurance companies. I say this not to impress anyone, but instead to let you know what a profound impact Prof. Lohmeyer had on me and my career path. We would certainly never have remembered me, but I remembered him often throughout my 32 year career. He touched my life as I'm sure he did many.
