He was born November 22, 1959 in Buckhannon, WV to Gladys Irene Chidester and Donald Eugene Loudin, Sr. He was preceded in death by his father, Donald and his sister Judy Anne Loudin. He is survived by his mother, Gladys Chidester; one sister, Karen Loudin; two brothers, Bruce Loudin and Merrill Campbell, Jr.; wife, Tammy Loudin; three sons, Bryan, Jared and Nathaniel Loudin; grandson, Zander Don-allen Loudin; two nieces, Cheyenne and Sierra Walters as well as many other family members and friends. From a very young age he and his friend, Charlie, grew up fishing and trapping on the rivers of Indiana. As a teenager he moved to West Virginia, where he later met Tammy Jeffries, who would become his wife. They had three sons, who shared his love for the outdoors. His eldest son, Bryan, learned from him that \u201cif you don\u2019t do something right, don\u2019t do it at all\u201d. He instilled within his middle son, Jared, the philosophy that, \u201cif it ain\u2019t worth working for, it ain\u2019t worth having\u201d. Nathaniel, the youngest, attributes his work ethic of, \u201cwork hard for what you got so you respect it\u201d, to his loving father. His brother, Merrill, who was paralyzed as a young adult, remembers Donnie always being by his side giving him words of encouragement. One of Merrill\u2019s fondest memories was being taken on a boat by his brother, Donnie, after the accident and never feeling so free. Merrill considered Donnie not only his brother but his best friend. Donnie was a husband, father, brother, son, grandfather and friend with so much love to give. He will be truly and deeply missed by many. Friends will be recieved on Friday, March 30, 2012 from 1-3 PM at the Poling-st. Clair Funeral Home. A memorial service will be held 3 PM Friday at the funeral home.   Poling-st. Clair Funeral Home is in charge of the arrangements.<\/p><center><a style=\"color:Tomato; \" href=\"https:\/\/www.snapwhole.com\/index.php\/randolph-county-west-virginia-area-obituaries\/\">Return to Randolph County Area Obituaries Home Page<\/a><\/center><br><br><div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div><p id=\"pvc_stats_97858\" class=\"pvc_stats all  \" data-element-id=\"97858\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" alt=\"Loading\" src=\"https:\/\/www.snapwhole.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/page-views-count\/ajax-loader-2x.gif\" border=0 \/><\/p><div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Return to Randolph County Area Obituaries Home Page Donald Eugene \u201cPapaw\u201d Loudin, Jr., age 52, died at his home on Cow Run Rd. in Rock Cave, WV on March 19, 2012.
