Not sure what to say?

A man to be trusted , and I even bought a used car from Lowell. It's been many years since seeing him,but loved his quiet manner and his devotion to the Lord. My prayers are for the family at this time of loss of a wonderful man

Those of us that knew Lowell were very blessed.He taught me how to be an usher at our church.I felt a bit odd being a woman usher because all our ushers were men.Lowell told me to "just get out there and take charge,women can be good ushers too".Lowell was a wonderful man of God and a wonderful treasure in heaven.

Love you Grampa! Rest well !

Lowell taught me how to change the clutch in my 1972 Mercury Comet. When I damaged the front fender, he also taught me how to repair and paint it. He took great pleasure in seeing me work with my hands (always called me "college boy") and I learned a lot from his home grown talent and skill that enabled him to build anything he pleased, it was a gift.

He was blessed with living so many years...well beyond most. He was also blessed to have such a wonderful family that took amazing care of him..esp after Maxine passed away. We send you our heartfelt sympathy.

Dearest Sharon,
You... along with your family,took such good care of your father.

You respected his wishes,which allowed him to pass peacefully in his home that he loved, with dignity and grace.
He may not have always shown it, but he depended on you, appreciated you and loved you. For that you can always be proud. We will miss Lowell,as he...

Sharon and family, my thought are with you and your family at this time. What a long and wonderful life. I have many memories of my time with Lowell. Mostly sitting around the kitchen table with him and Maxine talking about nothing important but just enjoying the conversation. Lowell was a good and honest man. I can only hope that he is now sitting around that table chatting with Maxine and Tomiko. David Heim
