Lola was a lady who loved to bowl and go with her daughter on gambling junkets. She worked for 21 years with the Red Cross as their Safety Director. She and her husband loved riding trains and traveled throughout the country taking many different train rides wherever the train would go. She was an excellent cook and will always be remembered by her family for her scrumptious cheese she used to make at Christmas. She loved to garden and can, but most of all she loved her family. She was a wonderful wife, mother and grandmother. She will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.
Those left to cherish her memories are her two sons, Michael Lowe and wife, Judy of Charlotte, Bill Lowe of Gastonia, step-daughter, Judy Berry and husband, Mike of Boston, MA, step-son, John Lewis Marshall and wife, Kathy of Lexington, MA; five grandchildren; eleven great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her first husband, George “Bill” William Lowe and second husband, Robert “Bob” Munroe Marshall; daughter, Kathy Ann Lowe; siblings Robert Bain, Daniel Bain and Mary Gillen.
