Dolores Ann Lowe

Dolores A. Lowe, age 89, of Royal Oak, passed away on June 3, 2023. She was born on July 2, 1933 in Detroit to Louis Czubaj and Antoinette Paczowska Czubaj. Dolores received her Master's degree from Wayne State University and in her early years was a teacher in both Detroit and Warren schools. After raising her family, she returned to work at the Baldwin Public Library in Birmingham. She spent over twenty-five years working there and became an interlibrary loan and circulation expert. She also developed many lasting friendships. Dolores loved so many things: reading (she read loads of books of all sorts,) cooking, knitting and other crafty art, watching movies and traveling, especially to Illinois to visit her grandchildren. She could often be found doing outdoor activities such as walking, playing tennis and swimming. When her kids were young, she helped out with the Boy scouts and the Girl scouts. As a longtime volunteer at Our Lady Queen of Martyrs, she was very devoted to her faith. She made dozens of retreats to Manresa in Bloomfield HIlls and also to St. Anne's Cathedral in Quebec. She will always be remembered not only for her love of her family, but also for her lovely laughter with those who knew her. Dolores was the Beloved wife of the late Bernard "Rick" Lowe. Loving mother of Richard Lowe, Carol (Mike) Keller, Paul Lowe and Barbara Lowe. Proud grandmother of Patrick (Lacee) Keller, Matthew Keller and great grandmother of Aria Keller, Adler Keller and Ayla Keller. Dear sister of Carol Winiarski.
