Floyd Albert Low

DENISON - On Monday, April 4th, 2011, Floyd Albert Low went quietly, peacefully, and gently, home to the Lord and Savior with family members surrounding him. He fought the good fight against a bone marrow disease and lays comforted now in the arms of the Lord.

Visitation for Floyd will be from 6:00 – 8:00 P.M., Thursday, April 7, 2011 at Bratcher Funeral Home. Funeral service will be at 10:00 A.M., Friday, April 8, 2011 at Morton Street Church of Christ, 2223 W. Morton St., Denison, TX 75020. Jerry Spradling and Travis Bookout will officiate. Burial will follow at Holloway Cemetery in Luella, Texas. Pallbearers will be Kory Salsbury, Kurtis Salsbury, Luke Ottenbacher, Jimmy Hutson, Anthony Cox and Mark Keown.

He was faithful to the Lord, humble, and hoped for the good in the people he knew. His generosity was known by many who knew him. His humor could take the hardness of life away in just one mischievous smile or comment and those of us who knew him loved him deeply. He loved his family and friends and shared with those around him about the Savior of all, the Lord God Almighty.

He was born June 13, 1942, the son of Floyd Atlas Low & Reva V. Holloway. He was born at his parents’ home and raised in Grayson County in what was called the Celtic Community, located between Howe and Tom Bean. He attended Tom Bean schools and graduated from Southeastern College (Durant, Oklahoma) in 1971, where he received a bachelor degree in Business. He served in Vietnam as a medic, worked as a manager for Gibson’s and later began his own business (Low's Lawns & Sprinklers) which he owned for more than 25 years.

He is survived by his wife Elizabeth of Denison; son Chad Huggins of Tucson, Arizona; step-sons Kory Salsbury & wife Leslie of Denison, Kurtis Salsbury & wife Michelle of Denison; daughter Courtney Hutson & husband Jimmy of Carrollton, TX; step-daughter Kara Chain of Denison; brothers Harold Low & wife Alice of Sherman, Lynn Low & wife Brenda of Sherman; 16 grandchildren and one great-grandchild.
