Wenatchee World - Nov 19, 1997
Stephanie G. Low, 54, a 25-year resident of Wenatchee, passed away Nov. 18, 1997, surrounded by loving friends and family after a brave and dignified battle with cancer.
She was born on Aug. 8, 1943, in Yakima, to Stephen and Doris (Grant) Weist. Stephanie and her family moved to Cashmere in 1953. She graduated from Cashmere High School in 1961, and in 1963 she married her high school sweetheart, Gary Low.
Gary joined the U.S. Air Force and they traveled throughout Europe for most of the early 1960s. In 1965, she gave birth to their first son in Evereux, France, then returned to the States, eventually settling in Salem, Ore., with a total of four children. In 1972, Gary and two of their children died in a devastating house fire. Stephanie and two children survived and moved back to Cashmere to be near her parents. She found a home in Wenatchee where she raised her two children.
Stephanie never remarried as her children were the most important thing to her. All her time, energy, motives and goals were to raise her two children with love, honesty, much understanding and patience.
The outdoors was also one of her greatest loves. She and her family would go mushroom hunting up the Icicle every spring. She could barely get through the winter before she would long to go up in the woods and have a campfire and hunt for mushrooms. Her love for nature and animals was so true and deep.
Singing was also a favorite pastime and she was a member of the Wenatchee Appleaires for 15 years. More recently she worked at the Wenatchee Library and she was on the management team for the Central Washington Hospital Gift Shop.
Stephanie will be missed so very much. She had a great sense of humor that would see her through anything. She could crack a joke up to the very end.
We are so sad that we lost her, but will remember her with laughter and many many happy memories.
She is survived by her son, Michael and his wife Jody of Kent; her daughter, Melanie Low of Wenatchee; her sister, Sharon and her husband Jerry Swanson of Collins, N.Y.; her sister, Loey and her husband Norm Minske of Omaha, Neb.; as well as many nieces and nephews. She also leaves behind her two loving and devoted dogs, Candy and Bear, who will miss her as much as the rest of us.
She is preceded in death by her parents, her husband Gary, son Christopher and daughter Brenda.
Jones and Jones Funeral Directors are in charge of arrangements.
