Evelyn Loughan

DARLINGTON – Evelyn “Evie” Loughan, 85, passed away peacefully at home on August 22, 2021 in Darlington, WI after a brief illness. She was born in Chicago, IL on August 13, 1936, and later moved her family to Racine, WI, where she spent most of her life. On July 24, 1971, she married the love of her life, Bernard “Bernie” Loughan. Evie worked for Sears and Machinery & Factory in Racine for many years. In August 2019, Evie moved to Darlington to be closer to her niece and nephew.
Evie loved playing dartball and bingo, going out to lunch with friends, and drinking coffee at McDonalds. She liked a good western and card or dice games. She loved hanging out with her family and friends, cracking jokes and had no problem speaking her mind! She may have been small, but she was wild! Evie had no children of her own, but she claimed her nephew Mark Garner and his children Laura and Al Coulthard (AJ, Dakota, Lilly and Seth) and Josh and Mary Garner (Kennedy) as their own.
She is survived by Laura, Al, Josh, Mary and their children and many many nieces, nephews and friends. Her husband, who was 38 years old, Bernie, preceded her in death; her parents: Gustave and Lydia Perman; Brothers: Otto (Grace) Perman, Ray (Delores) Perman, Augie (Katherine) Perman, and Hank (Beverly) Perman; Sister: Adeline (Tony) Garner and special nephew Mark.
In accordance with Evie’s request, the cremation took place and the funeral will take place at a later date at Southern Wisconsin’s Veterans Memorial Cemetery. Evie’s family would like to thank the staff at UW Hospital and Agrace Hospice for the great care and comfort they have given her. The Erickson Funeral Home in Darlington serves the family.
