Edward Lawrence Lowell, 57, passed away on September 22nd, 2024, at New Hanover County Regional Medical Center in Wilmington, North Carolina. He was born on September 3rd, 1967, and grew up in Wilmington but went on to reside in Graham, North Carolina.
Predeceased by his parents, Freida Bucher Lowell and Edward Stephen Lowell, Edward is survived by his two daughters, Rachel Lowell and Sarah Lowell; his sister, Renate Cooper; his brother-in-law, David Cooper; his nephews, David Cooper and Sean Cooper; and his loving partner, Kim Balderson.
Edward will be remembered as a gracious and giving man who always put his family first. He earned his BA from University of North Carolina Wilmington and his MBA from Queens University of Charlotte. In his professional life, Edward served as Vice President of Supply Chain Management and owned his own real estate company. Despite his dedication to his work, he embraced life’s joys, whether it was on the golf course, traveling, eating good food, attending sporting events, or going to concerts. But most of all, he cherished the time he got to spend with his friends and family.
A Funeral Service will be held in his honor at 2pm Friday, September 27, 2024, at Andrews Market Street Chapel, 1617 Market Street, Wilmington, NC 28401. Family and friends are invited to a reception following the ceremony at his childhood home.

We shared a community, Wrightsboro, a childhood, and those turbulent teen years. And many, many laughs. I had the privilege of meeting your father years after we had long since stepped into adulthood. He was a good man who kept me apprised of your comings and goings. Had been out of touch for some time. But back to back class reunions allowed us a little catch up. But last year we were able to really have some laughs and reminisce about the good old days. I'm thankful for that. Though it is...

You will be missed at Bell and Howell. It was a pleasure sharing memories of our hometown and high school with you. Another Buccaneer gone too soon. May you rest in peace.

In loving memory of a kind and sweet soul. Eddie and I met in high school and instantly became great friends. We shared our love of music and singing together while we were there. We crossed paths a few years ago and he told me where life had taken him and we reminisced of our times together. My deepest condolences to his family. Go Rest High On That Mountain Eddie
