Thomas "Tom" L. Ludwig

Thomas “Tom” L. Ludwig, age 76, of Northwood, Ohio, passed away July 22, 2024, at Hospice of Northwest Ohio - Perrysburg, after a courageous fight with cancer. He was born February 12, 1948, in Toledo, Ohio, to the late Maurice and Bernadine (Deal) Ludwig.

Tom attended Start High School, where he graduated in 1967. He worked as an electrician for DuPont for over 40 years, where he was very devoted and hard working.

Tom was the life of the party and enjoyed having a good time. He liked boating, disco dancing, but most importantly, watching NASCAR and the Las Vegas Raiders. Tom was good with his hands and could fix anything! He was very proud of his Pontiac Fiero hot rod he built. Most of all, Tom loved creating memories with his family and friends. 

He was a fighter until the very end. Toms humor, love, and smile will forever be missed by those who knew him. This is not goodbye, but we will see you again… 

Those left to forever cherish his memory are his loving wife, Sue Ann (La Plante) Ludwig, whom he married in 1990; children, Lorraine (Kevin) Gritten and Rushel Carper; grandchildren, Alyssa Carper and Charissa Helm; step-children, Mike (Jen) La plante, Kevin Diesing, Nicole (Matt) Soldwish, and Nicholas (Amanda) Diesing; fourtneen step-grandchildren; brother, Wayne (Sandy) Ludwig; nephew, Brian (Lori Nichols) Ludwig; and three great nieces and nephews.
