To the Lowe family: May God keep you and bless you in this time of sadness. I grew up with Linda & Debbie during my early teen years. Not only did the Lowes lose a good father, the community lost a good man. My prayers are with the family.

To Mrs Lowe and all of the Lowe girls...I send to you my deepest sympathy in your loss. Through all the stories I've heard of the wonderful family times that you all have shared I know how much your hearts are hurting....but you have had something so many others never experience. You have had an abundance of love and fun and memories that will last you a lifetime and will be passed along from generation to generation. I only met "Lowe" (that's what he told me to call him) one time, but he had a warm and friendly spirit that instantly made him feel like an old friend. I know that Phoebe will be heart-broken too, as she spoke about him regularly and with much love. To you all I say that I know he has gone home and is doing fine...and I will pray that God will give you all strength and peace and love. Again my deepest sympathy.

Terra and Family,
We are praying for you. You have always been such a close, loving family and you, Terra, a "daddy's girl". There is nothing we can really say that will make you feel better at this difficult time. We just want you to know that we love you and are keeping you close to our heart. Trust in God. He will carry you through.
