Lowe and Oliver are greatly saddened to announce the loss of our Chairman Patrick Graham Lowe who passed away quietly aged 90 years following recent ill health.

Following completion of an engineering science degree at Brasenose college Oxford, Patrick joined the University Air squadron prior to serving in the Royal Air Force before returning home to run the family business in 1958.

Patrick was a well known, active member of the charitable community and served the Electrical Contractors Association both locally and nationally as President. He was well respected amongst his peers and helped develop and restore many of Oxford’s and the country’s most prestigious buildings.

Throughout his career he was a mentor and fine example to a vast number employed within both Lowe and Oliver and throughout the Oxfordshire electrical community, nurturing and passing down the high standards and values he so passionately believed in.     

Patrick will be greatly missed by those who had the pleasure of knowing and working with him and our heartfelt sympathies go out to his family and friends.

Today is a very sad day for all the team at Lowe and Oliver, our sister companies and we mourn the loss of a true gentleman.

Rest in peace Patrick.
