Paul Lowe Sr., 90, of Dadeville, Alabama, passed away peacefully in his home on February 3, 2025. Born on February 14, 1934, in Tallapoosa County, he lived a life dedicated to his family, community, and love of learning. Paul was a beloved science teacher and assistant principal at Reeltown High School and Tallapoosa Academy, where he inspired countless students with his passion for learning and his commitment to their academic success. He is remembered fondly by former students and colleagues alike. A proud horticulture graduate of Auburn University (formerly Alabama Polytechnic Institute), Paul went on to share his love of science as he established Millstone Nursery. Alongside his wife, Glenda, who managed the florist, Millstone Nursery and Florist, became an integral part of the Dadeville community. Through Millstone, they shared their passion for plants and became trusted figures in the nursery and floral industry. Paul and Glenda kept their home open to their children's friends, offering a place where everyone felt comfortable and welcome. In his retirement years, with his expertise in horticulture and attention to detail, he opened Millstone Japanese Maple Nursery. He grafted and cultivated many new varieties of Japanese Maples that collectors around the country have traveled to obtain. Paul was a kind and compassionate man and an accomplished lifelong learner. He will be remembered for his wisdom, his entrepreneurial spirit, and the love he showed to his family. Paul is survived by his wife, Glenda Simpson Lowe; children, Paul Lowe Jr. (Renee), Ann Schmitz (Tim), Julie Duncan (Jeff); grandchildren, Ashley Atkins (Brian), Alexius Lowe, Sara Jones, Danielle Jones (Wayne Black), Christopher Jones (Susan), Jarred Schmitz, Jonathan Schmitz, Marie Schmitz, Jenna LaMendola (Brian), Bennett Duncan (Caitlin), Haley Duncan (Parker Evans), Isaac Duncan; and great-grandchildren, AnaGrace Atkins, Xander Atkins, Oliver Hyde, Daysia Jones, Jaden Black, Meggan Jones.
