Norman K. Lowry, age 86, passed away on Monday (Dec 7th, 2020) at United Helper’s Riverledge Nursing Home.
Norman was born June 4th, 1934, in Watertown, N.Y. Very early in his life he and his mother moved back to her family farm in Herman. His early childhood years were spent on this farm. Norman fondly enjoyed telling stories from those years (such as how he loved the maple syruping that occurred each spring). At about 10 years of age he and his mother settled permanently in Ogdensburg.
From a very young age, Norman wanted to fly. An article in the local Ogdensburg newspaper recorded his surprising solo flight from the Ogdensburg Airport in a Cub Crusier at age 16. Immediately after this flight Norman quit his job as a newspaper boy for the Ogdensburg Journal to take a job at the airport. From there on his life was forever about aviation.
