Obituary
LOYALL FARRAGUT SEWALL JR. FORMER REPUBLICAN STATE CHAIRMAN
Maine Sunday Telegram (Portland, ME) - Sunday, February 19, 1995
Loyall Farragut Sewall Jr., 60, a lawyer, businessman and former state chairman of the Republican Party, died Thursday at Maine Medical Center in Portland.
Born a son of Loyall Farragut Sewall and Jane Smith, he attended Harvard College and Boston University School of Law. He served three years in the Army.
Mr. Sewall practiced law in Maine at Verrill and Dana in Portland, and subsequently at Sewall, Mittle and Heffernon.
For many of those years, he was among the top lobbyists in Augusta, and was known affectionately as ''The Bear,'' both because of his stocky physique and the force of his presence on the State House scene. The Maine Sunday Telegram identified him in 1975 as one of the state's top 10 lobbyists and quoted a leading Democrat as saying: ''People don't like who Loyall represents all the time, but they feel he's honest.''
Since 1983, he owned and operated Keene Narrows Lobster Pound. He participated in many lobster industry associations including three years of service on the New England Fisheries Management Council. ''I love it,'' he said of his business endeavor in a 1984 interview. ''It's a whole new thing. God, I wish I had done it 20 years ago.''
Mr. Sewall served as chairman of the Maine Republican Party from 1983-1987, and often is given much credit for its resurgence.
He also chaired the Bremen Planning Board from 1988-1991.
Mr. Sewall was a maritime historian and a founding member of and contributor to the Bath Marine Museum (now the Maine Maritime Museum). He was a sailor and enjoyed salmon fishing.
Surviving are his wife Sharon Sewall; two daughters, Sarah and Rebecca Sewall, and a son, Loyall.
A private memorial service will be held in the spring. Arrangements are by Direct Cremation of Maine, Belfast.
