Many years ago I hired Lowell to work in the Security Force of The Central Arizona Project. As his Supervisor, I didn't. You didn't need to supervise him and I was always comfortable that he would take care of issues wisely and with his natural sense of humor. But he's like most Special Forces members that I know. A special human being.

I served with SGM Storer in Detachment A, Berlin Brigade during the early1980s. While serving in 10th SFG. We deployed to Salt Lake City, for winter warfare training. During that period of time, I was hospitalized for a short time. Lowell was kind enough to visit me while I there. Rest in peace Green Beret, we fought the good fight for God and Country.
