After City Manager Jeff Tillman read the resolution and commissioners unanimously approved it, Tillman lifted the cloth to reveal a street sign that soon would be installed.
“Oh my goodness, I am so, so amazed, shocked,” Lowrance, 64, said of the renaming. “It brought me to tears when they did the resolution and then it speaks of the road. I was very honored.”
Tillman said that Lowrance is the longest-serving employee in Auburndale history, a record he said is unlikely to be surpassed.
“What a professional,” said Bobby Green, one of four city managers for whom Lowrance worked before his retirement in April after 30 years in the job. “Most certainly a complement to the city workforce and just did a great job; most certainly will be missed. But I know that, as I’ve just stepped into retirement, I know that she will enjoy it as well.”
