Possible - SSDI shows a John Looby  born 19 November 1903 - passed away January 1972 - last residence - Last Residence:    10028 New York.
Would need further investigation because there was another john Looby born in New York 1902 - perhaps an exact date of birth in Ireland would help.

The second named daughter is a divorce lawyer - it mentions where in the obituary.
