Jeanne F. Lowe

January 15, 1933 - October 29, 2016

Jeanne F. Lowe, 83, of Butler, passed away Saturday, October 29, 2016 at home. She was born January 15, 1933 in Butler, the daughter of the late Arthur Trimbur and Clara Schuler Trimbur. Mom loved spending time with, entertaining and cooking for friends and family. There was always room at her table for one more. She loved to travel, play board games, cards and dice, build puzzles with her family, cheer for the Steelers, and make beer and wine. She loved a good bargain, and hated groundhogs in her garden. She lived and loved life fully, and was fiercely proud of her entire extended family. She will be missed by us all. Jeanne was a life-long member of St. Peters Catholic Church, where her father was a handyman. She was a graduate of BHS in 1950 and Allegheny Valley Hospital School of Nursing. She retired from Midwestern Intermediate Unit (IU4) as a registered nurse. She is survived by her husband, Alan D. Lowe, who she married April 24, 1953, 4 sons, Douglas (Marlene) Lowe of Butler; Jeff Lowe of Springfield, VT; Ted (Diane) Lowe of West Sunbury; Chris (Julie) Lowe of Gaithersburg, MD; 9 grandchildren, Heather, Billy, Mandi, Tristan, Erin, Dan, Tara, Clara, Erick; 6 great grandchildren; a sister, Carolyn (John) Grecco of Mt Pleasant; and a brother, Joe (Corky) Trimbur of New Boston, NH. She was preceded in death by her parents, 8 sisters and 2 brothers. The family would like to thank her caregivers and most especially her doctor, Thomas Shetter, MD for his lifelong compassionate care of her. Viewing for our extended family will be on Saturday, November 5, 2016, from 3-5PM at Young Funeral Home, Ltd., 127 West Jefferson Street, Butler, PA 16001 with interment in St. Peters Cemetery at a later date. In lieu of flowers, please make the time to sit with our family and share some pickled beets. She'd have liked that.
