Almost a month now and I still find it hard to believe I will not see your familiar face at Meet Up events. I will never forget the time we shared;talking about our grand kids, sharing pictures . . . I know I am not the only one missing this. You are very special and touched many peoples lives in your special way. Always had a smile. To all family and friends, may the peace and comfort of God be with you every day.

John, you epitomize all that is right with the world. You, your parents and family have been the best of friends to the Warrens. The Warren children have fond memories of their childhood growing up with you and your family in Tucson. So many good times and so much fun. You are and will be missed by all the Warrens. Many thanks for all the thrills and adventures. Until we meet again, amigo!

John, thank you so much for your friendship. You kept me on the dance floor and were always so excited to share all your phone pictures of your trips. So many times we talked about going on a trip together after you helped me find a used quad. I wish we had made that happen but time got away from us. We said we would this summer. I went to your funeral, so many people loved you and we all will miss you. There will be a void in so many lives. On Sunday May 4th you were going to bring the quads over to my house and we were going to go ride on RailX ranch but some how communication got mixed up and you didn't get the confirmation and made other plans. I will always regret that happened. I hope some day when I meet you in heaven you will bring out the pictures of your adventure there to show me. Thanks John, and I HOPE YOU DANCE! - Belinda

My faithful dance partner, always there to ask me to dance. I will always remember you. Our conversations were always about his family and would very proudly show me the updated pictures of his grandchildren. I'm feeling his loss, I can only imagine how his family is feeling. My deepest condolences.

Dear Lowe family,
I'm sorry to hear of your loss. John and I worked together for many years. He was a model citizen and employee for all to know. I'm shocked that he is gone. God bless you John and your family.

As a Father-in-Law to my daughter, Jeannette, he just couldn't be beat. She called him her "Best Friend" and he truly was someone she and her family could count on for help any time it was needed and lots of love. His "family parties" always included anyone that wanted to come and all felt welcome in his home. He will be missed by many of us, his family and friends.

I was so sorry to hear of John's passing. He was the nicest man - so caring and funny and I loved the times I got to spend eating family dinners at his house. The home-made ice cream was always a treat! Sending much love to the Lowe family. Best wishes.

Brother Lowe was always kind to me and "lovingly" pulled my pony tails any chance he got. He and his family went on trips to Rocky Point and the White Mountains with my family (Cook Family) often. He had a great sense of humor and fun stories to tell.

I had the pleasure of working with John since 1974 when we had hired into the M.O.G. training class at Hughes Aircraft Co. He was a good Cal Tech and a great person. He will be missed. His family will be in my prayers.
