To Family and Friends --
Such a loss! I am one of the many, many students taught by this man -- he had a great impact on my artistic life!

Chip and I met George through Pam many years ago. He was so charming, a great dancer, and an incredible professor of Art. We are very fortunate to have one of his masterpieces hanging in our living room
We are thinking of you all at this difficult time. May you feel the love that surrounds you during this time of sorrow.

I wasn't very good at art, but Mr. Lowry always made me feel that I was! I learned so much in his class at LLCC--sculpting, soldering metal, more hands on art forms/mediums. He was a great instructor and a favorite of many students!

While I never had the pleasure of meeting his family, I met George several years ago through a mutual friend. His wisdom, humor and common sense always brightened my world, and I will miss him...heart-felt condolences to the family...George was one of the good ones!
