Memorial Walk was created to remember and honor individuals who have been important in the history of our organization — and the lives of our founders, Ed and Darlene Lowe. This includes not only family members and foundation employees but also past employees from the many businesses that Ed Lowe operated including Lowe’s Sawdust Company, Lowe’s Inc., Big Rock Valley Farm and Edward Lowe Industries Inc. (ELI). Markers include trees and bronze markers. As time passes, we will be including more of the area surrounding Penn Church to remember the individuals who are near and dear to the foundation and the history of Ed and Darlene.
We’re here, you see
Not just to be
A plant not rooted,
A rootless tree.
Engrave the present,
Relate to the past,
Tomorrow, though fog bound,
Will arrive at last.
Firm the footing
Inlaced with steel
For those tomorrow
Its wisdom feel.
So past and present
Have gone at best
Forever tomorrow
Will be laid to rest.
