Title: KEN LOWRY RIP Post by: deano on January 29, 2011, 17:43:42 pm It is with great sadness that I need to tell all of you that Ken Lowry passes away last night. Paul Schley called me this morning at 8:00am, that he just received phone calls from both Joanne (Lowry) and Donald, Ken's son. Ken was at home with his wife Nancy at his side, and I believe he was 76. I talked to him just last week, when he saw the new issue (Part 2 of the Deano Dyno-Soars history). He had just gone through chemotherapy, and was feeling a bit better afterwards. We just lost another great icon of the VW world...
