Remembering Webster Lowe
Husband of Thalian’s Board Chair Emeritus Ms. Ruta Lee
This may very well be the saddest post I will ever have to make. I lost the love my life last night. For 46 wonderful years we loved, we laughed, we traveled the world. He has taken his last trip and is flying with the Angels.
Webster Bernard Lowe 7/18/31 – 7/2/20
