Don Lowe
« on: March 25, 2021, 08:43:24 AM »
He was not one of us, his was truly a sad story for the last decade-plus, but he was my brother. He passed away last Sunday at the age of 75.

He was a Huey pilot during the Nam era, although he spent his entire tour at the DMZ in Korea, and ended up at Hunter AAB in Savannah when he transitioned out.

He suffered from dementia for some time, probably on the order of 18-20 years overall, but with a steep decline over the past 2 years. He was in a memory care facility when he passed.

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

The time for action is upon us and the enemy is at our gates. Let us not allow them one more inch of advancement but instead throw them through the gates of Hell.

Thanks everyone, I very much appreciate your notes.

Here's a link to his obit should you want a scant few more details: https://www.legacy.com/obituaries/savannah/obituary.aspx?n=donald-lowe&pid=198174384. I wrote a longer one but pretty much got edited to what was printed.
