Owen James Loftus

Owen J. Loftus, 35, of Akron, passed away unexpectedly on October 2, 2026. He was born August 27, 1991 to James and Lois Loftus.

Owen attended Springfield High School. He had a caring heart, looking out for others and would always be the first to jump in and help someone in need. He especially loved wildlife, feeding the local squirrels, birds, and any other animals that wandered his way. Owen could brighten up a room with his humor, laughter, and smile. He had many accomplishments. But his greatest was his love for his family, especially his son.

He was preceded in death by his father James P. Loftus, Jr; grandparents James P. and Juanita L. Loftus; and grandparents Owen Z. and Marlene K. Garrett.

Owen is survived by his son Jaxon Loftus; mother Lois Loftus; twin brother Patrick Loftus; sister Christina Loftus; and many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, November 28, 2026 at the United Methodist Church of Uniontown. The family will receive guests between 1:00pm and 5:00 pm. Refreshments will be provided.
