Walt and I wish to thank all the members of the Huron Sportsmen’s Association for recognizing and honoring our son. 
We wish to thank Brian Moore, the chairman of Ceremony for his outstanding job. Brain was a great friend to our son, and has kept the memory Richard in his heart these many years.
To the members of the Huron Sportsmen’s Association, Brian, and our friends, your thoughtfulness has touched our hearts deeply.
We also would like to thank the Township Board for the Proclamation in Memory of our Richard.
Thank You Linda Dyer for the pictures and your very touching letter.

As a former Huron Township resident, I too, thank the Huron Sportmens Association and the Huron Township Board for this very special honor for the dear brother of our daughter-in-law, Pamela Lowe Krzyske. Though so many years have gone by, since the event that cost Richard Kent Lowe his life, I think it’s especially significant that this has been remembered and honored. God bless all who were involved in carrying this to completion.
