Uncle David was truly one of a kind. I only ever saw the gentle soul side, never short on telling a good story even if he did tend to run a bit long. I know how much he loved his family as most stories were of them. God bless the Low family now & during this tough time.

I didn't know anyone that didn't like Mr. Low. He was our coach in Dixie Youth Baseball. I remember him well. Great man.

I grew up right across the street, South Rhett. He always called me Tom Cat. I haven't seen Dave Low in many years, but thought about him now and then, and the rest of the family. I had many good times at his home with his kids. He was a good man, good father, and a good neighbor. My condolences to the family.

I lost my father when I was 18 years old and got engaged to Dave's daughter Judy when I was 19 and married her when I was 20. Dave has been like a father to me for over 40 years and I could not have asked for a better father figure and dear friend. I have learned a lot from Dave over all these years including how to shrimp, gather oysters (low tide only and only months with a "r" in them) as well as many other life skills. The one thing I have learned most of all is to love your wife and your children with all of your heart and cherish the times you have to spend with them. I will miss Dave Low like I miss my father I lost many years ago, but will enjoy all of the wonderful memories we made spending time together. May God rest his soul!!

We were so sorry to learn of Mr. Low's passing. Although we primarily saw Mr. Low at family gatherings at Thanksgiving and Christmas, he was always gracious and welcoming. We'll miss him.
