He loved his time at the paper office and enjoyed being the go-to guy for machine maintenance. He was best known by his family for playing jokes on the grandkids, spending time with his furry friends, Buttons, Caroline and Roscoe, and his love for his daughters.
He was preceded in death by his wife, Mary Frances Fentress and grandson, William Henry Lowrance.
He leaves his loving memories to be cherished by his daughters, Regina Lowrance, Melissa Makovy, Elizabeth Makovy, and Brittany Cortez and husband, Stephen; and his grandchildren.
