SUMMERFIELD, Fla. — Beloved husband, father and grandfather, Daniel Emerick Lowmaster, 94, went home to be with Jesus, Monday, March 18, 2024.

He was born in Rossiter, Pa., on Oct. 12, 1929, to W.T. Lowmaster and Ruth States Lowmaster. Dan was a veteran of the U.S Army, serving in the Korean War.

He moved to the Youngstown area, where he worked for the U.S Steel Corporation. He met and married Ruth Vestal in 1956 and they raised four children near Canfield. Dan later worked as a custodian for the South Range School District.

He served faithfully at Greenford Christian Church for many years, as he modeled to his children what mattered in life, showing them the path to eternal life in heaven.

In 1994, Dan and Ruth retired to Spruce Creek Development in Summerfield. There they found another church home, Fairway Christian Church in The Villages, where Dan served for many years as a deacon. Dan was preceded to heaven by his beloved wife, Ruth.
