Virginian-Pilot  March 10, 1943
John Patrick McLaughlin, 53 years old, Norfolk freight agent for the Norfolk and 
Western Railway, died yesterday afternoon at 4:30 o’clock in a local hospital, 
to which he was taken after being stricken in his office yesterday morning.
Mr. McLaughlin was a native of York, Penn., and had resided in Norfolk for about 
31 years. He was considered one of the outstanding railroad men of this section. 
His associates say he had a remarkable memory and could dispose of problems, 
troublesome to others, in short order and with almost infallible accuracy. He 
was appointed freight agent some time ago, succeeding C. F. Palmer, who retired. 
He had been assistant to Mr. Palmer. He resided at apartment 6, Graydon 
apartments, 616 Graydon Park. He was a son of the late Owen McLaughlin, and Mrs. 
Mary Elizabeth Dawson McLaughlin, and a member of Sacred Heart Catholic Church.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Marie S. McLaughlin; two daughters, Mrs. M. J. 
Cannon, Jr. and Mrs. R. L. Galloway; four sons, Owen P., Frank M., Paul M. and 
Austin John McLaughlin and seven grandchildren, all of Norfolk. Three sisters, 
Misses Kathleen, Honore and Eunice McLaughlin, of York, two brothers, Joseph 
McLaughlin, of Wilmington, Del., and Private Eugene McLaughlin, U.S. Army, of 
California, and a stepson, John R. Monteiro, of Norfolk.
The body was taken to the H. D. Oliver Funeral Apartments, 1501 Colonial avenue, 
pending arrangements.
