Walter Löhnberg (b. 1879, Duisburg) was a businessman and co-director of the shipping firm Transimex. He married Lucy Cohen in 1909 and had three children. After the Kristallnacht pogrom in 1938, the family fled to the Netherlands. Walter settled in Rotterdam in late 1938; Lucy and daughter Marianne joined in 1939. Their sons escaped to the U.S. and U.K. In 1940, Walter and Lucy were forced to leave Rotterdam and moved to Bilthoven. In 1942, they were deported to Amsterdam and shortly after to Westerbork. On 4 May 1943, they were transported to Sobibor, where they were murdered upon arrival on 7 May. Walter was 64, Lucy 57.
