PLYMOUTH TOWNSHIP — Another legacy has come to an end as Donna L. Musgrave Lowe begins a new journey as she has ended her journey here as of 7:47 a.m., Tuesday, April 10, 2012, in the Hospice Unit of Ashtabula Co. Medical Center. While traveling thru this life she has very lovingly touched many people's hearts and lives; and even though her journey has ended; her legacy and her love will continue to live on through the lives she has touched.
She was born on Jan. 23, 1929, in Plymouth Township, the daughter of the late Raymond and Hilda (Allen) Franklin. On June 12, 1947, she married Austin Glenn Musgrave. In the 1950's, they were noted for barn dances held at the Musgrave barn which we were told that Mr. Musgrave did as a fund raiser for the Pierpont American Legion and we still hear people talk today of the barn dance days. They also enjoyed farming together.
Mrs. Musgrave enjoyed being a homemaker and was a wonderful mother and grandmother, sewing clothes for both her children and grandchildren. When Mr. Musgrave died on May 5, 1992, he left behind a wonderful woman whom her children loved very much After six years of widowhood, Mrs. Musgrave met another wonderful man, Eugene H. Lowe; they were wed on Sept. 23, 1998 and spent their golden years together until his death on March 15, 2012.
Although both of the loves of her life are gone, there are many left behind that will miss her laughter and her love but she will continue to live on in our hearts forever. Sadly we say goodbye to her for now, but hope to join her again someday. Those surviving include daughters, Barbara (Ken) Eastbrooks of Brentwood, Tenn. and Martha Chambers of Kingsville; sons, David (Barb) Musgrave of Mayo, Fla. and Denis (Judy) Musgrave of Greenville, Pa., whom she spent a few weeks with before returning to the hospital, 33 grandchildren, 38 great-grandchildren; and a brother, Richard "Dick" Franklin of Tryon, N.C.
Her parents; husbands, Glenn and Eugene; son-in-law, Don Chambers; and siblings, Melba Lazarchic, Anne Huey and William "Bill" Franklin, all preceded her in death.
Funeral Services will be held 10 a.m., Saturday, at the Jefferson Home of FLEMING & BILLMAN FUNERAL DIRECTORS, 49 W. Jefferson St., Jefferson, with the Rev. Jerry Bentley, of First Baptist Church, officiating. Burial will be in Ridgeview Cemetery.
Calling Hours will be held from 5 to 7 p.m., Friday, at the Funeral Home.
Memorial contributions may be given to the Alzheimer's Assoc., P. O. Box 74924, Cleveland, Ohio 44194-4924 or at www.IMOTree.com.

Donna L. Lowe
Anonymous Star Beacon The Star Beacon Thu Apr 12, 2012, 09:00 AM EDT
PLYMOUTH TOWNSHIP — Another legacy has come to an end as Donna L. Musgrave Lowe begins a new journey as she has ended her journey here as of 7:47 a.m., Tuesday, April 10, 2012, in the Hospice Unit of Ashtabula Co. Medical Center. While traveling thru this life she has very lovingly touched many people's hearts and lives; and even though her journey has ended; her legacy and her love will continue to live on through the lives she has touched.
She was born on Jan. 23, 1929, in Plymouth Township, the daughter of the late Raymond and Hilda (Allen) Franklin. On June 12, 1947, she married Austin Glenn Musgrave. In the 1950's, they were noted for barn dances held at the Musgrave barn which we were told that Mr. Musgrave did as a fund raiser for the Pierpont American Legion and we still hear people talk today of the barn dance days. They also enjoyed farming together.
Mrs. Musgrave enjoyed being a homemaker and was a wonderful mother and grandmother, sewing clothes for both her children and grandchildren. When Mr. Musgrave died on May 5, 1992, he left behind a wonderful woman whom her children loved very much After six years of widowhood, Mrs. Musgrave met another wonderful man, Eugene H. Lowe; they were wed on Sept. 23, 1998 and spent their golden years together until his death on March 15, 2012.
Although both of the loves of her life are gone, there are many left behind that will miss her laughter and her love but she will continue to live on in our hearts forever. Sadly we say goodbye to her for now, but hope to join her again someday. Those surviving include daughters, Barbara (Ken) Eastbrooks of Brentwood, Tenn. and Martha Chambers of Kingsville; sons, David (Barb) Musgrave of Mayo, Fla. and Denis (Judy) Musgrave of Greenville, Pa., whom she spent a few weeks with before returning to the hospital, 33 grandchildren, 38 great-grandchildren; and a brother, Richard "Dick" Franklin of Tryon, N.C.
Her parents; husbands, Glenn and Eugene; son-in-law, Don Chambers; and siblings, Melba Lazarchic, Anne Huey and William "Bill" Franklin, all preceded her in death.
Funeral Services will be held 10 a.m., Saturday, at the Jefferson Home of FLEMING & BILLMAN FUNERAL DIRECTORS, 49 W. Jefferson St., Jefferson, with the Rev. Jerry Bentley, of First Baptist Church, officiating. Burial will be in Ridgeview Cemetery.
Calling Hours will be held from 5 to 7 p.m., Friday, at the Funeral Home.
Memorial contributions may be given to the Alzheimer's Assoc., P. O. Box 74924, Cleveland, Ohio 44194-4924 or at www.IMOTree.com.
