Loved Wife of Jim (dec), Loving and loved Mother of Tim (dec), Priscilla and Barney. Adored Nan of Matthew, Alexis, Rebecca, Jim and April and Big Nan of Bon, Belle, Mackinley and Boston.

With great sadness we advise of the passing of Beverley Lowis. Beverley and Jim bought their 6 acres in Galston in 1955 for 75 pounds and Beverley would say she thought she was considered a “local” now.

Beverley was known to the Galston Community as a kindy teacher at Galston, Hillside and Berrilee Public Schools. After retiring she taught Scripture and music at many of our local small schools. Whilst raising her children she also became the local Physical Culture Teacher and Brownie Leader. Beverley was also an active member of the congregation of St Columbs Church in Arcadia. Everywhere Bev taught she managed to create a choir. She was always working on musicals, eisteddfods or c oncerts. This carried on to her starting up the “Rowland Village Singers” at her Retirement Village.

Bev was an active member of our small community and she gave so much to us all. She died peacefully at her home in Galston. She will be sadly missed by all who knew her.

A private funeral service was held for Beverley at St Columbs with her children and grandchildren in attendance. A memorial service will be held for Beverley after the COVID19 restrictions have been lifted. “Thank You For The Music”
