VRG Host down but not out

#1

Post by WIHEXROD »

It has been over a week since Lowell had his stroke. He is now doing better, but has a long road ahead. If you would like to send him well wishes or a card, please send me an email for his son's contact info and the hospital address. Would rather not post it.
Thoughts and prayers are always appreciated.

Chatting with Lowell at CRR was always a pleasure.

His efforts to drag rod making and rod makers into the era of Zoom helped fill a void during a year of canceled gatherings, made available a wealth of rod making tips, and gave us the opportunity to connect a face to names of makers we've not had the opportunity to meet.

Lowell, you'll be dearly missed.

The loss of a great individual is never easy for anyone. Lowell was a gift to the rodmaking community and his efforts and contributions have had a lasting impact on us all. My condolences to the family.
