May God bless him as always – David T. Hon (’59)

It is with great sadness that I heard of the sad news.

I remember Mr. Lowcock as the inspiring athletic coach, and as my Physics teacher in lower 6. His energy and his genuine concern for the even development of his students will always be fondly remembered by hundreds, if not thousands, of DBS old boys.

May God bless him as always.

David T. Hon, Class 1959.

Your wisdom & vision will be remembered – Samuel Fung (’80)

Rest in peace, Mr Lowcock. Tribute to you for touching all our hearts in big & small ways over the years; mine was taking an eye opening trip to Africa instead of having school exams 34 years ago. Your wisdom & vision will be remembered.

With deepest sympathy and condolence to the family.

Jimmy’s Passing – Gail and Richard Bohr

Gail and I are deeply saddened by the news of Jimmy’s passing. We feel blessed to have been inspired by him when we were part of the DBS community in 1972-74.

I learned a great deal from Jimmy about what it means to be a dedicated teacher and have endeavored to pass on this precious legacy in my subsequent college teaching career in the U.S.

Jimmy’s lasting legacy is reflected in the lives and dedication of so many DBS old boys in Hong Kong and around the world. He was a gift to so many, and the world is a better place because of him.

The Bohr family send its deepest condolences to Jimmy’s family and friends.

As ever,

Gail and Richard Bohr

St. Paul, Minnesota
