He was a Navy Veteran of the Korean War where he served from 1951 to 1955 in Korea and Japan. Lowell lived in Los Angeles, San Diego and Edmonds, WA during his adult life while raising his family. He worked for 30 years at AC Nielsen as a District Manager. Lowell and Evelyn celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in August. He was a 48+ year member and advisory board member of Edmonds Christian Church.

Lowell’s avid interest in genealogy and history lead him and his sister to publish a family history legacy book dating back to the year 1700. He was a dedicated volunteer at Edmonds Christian Church and the University of Washington Covenant House/Campus Ministries in Seattle and spent much time giving to those in need. His hobbies included a love of gardening, woodworking and model railroading.

Lowell’s greatest pride and joy were his two grandsons who will miss him very much.
