Leon was a fantastic basketball player for PR. He was a freind in high school. Doug Everhart and Leon formed a fantastic duo on the basketball court. Both his wife Sharon will bve lovingly remembered by those who knew them. Dick Carpenter

Elizabeth, I will never forget the pep fest we had in the gym when we had a skit and I wore one of your dresses ( I only weighed 112#s a wrestler) and 4 of us were called down to the office for shouting out "Charlie died" it was a nasty joke and everyone in school knew the joke and it drew a lot of cheers from the student body.U nfortunately Asst. Principle Charlie Lord knew the joke too. He laughed and was a good sport about it.

Lowell was a great teacher ,coach, and most importantly a  life long freind. He was a mentor to me as I was growing up. I respested him so much as a teacher. The class of 58 had the most successful basketball team in school history,although they did not make it to the state tournament the only losses were to three teams who were in the state tournament Willmar Bemidji  and Crosby-Ironton. and all 3 games were close.Lowell was highly respected by all of his students,teachers, and coaches he competed against. I know  Lois is waiting for him  at the pearly gates.I love you Lowell and know you are in a better place now.Til we meet again love you. Dick Carpenter.
