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.

To the family of Past Headmaster Sidney James Lowcock
I am extremely sorry to learn of the passing away of your beloved Past Headmaster Sidney James Lowcock.
I know that words are poor comforters at this time but please accept my
deepest sympathy and I pray to God to give his family ample
strength and courage through this difficult time.
In this saddest of moments, I share in their deep pain and grief.
May his soul be blessed with eternal peace.
With Deepest Sympathy,
David Harilela

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.

My deepest and heartfelt condolences to Mr. Lowcock’s family and loved ones.
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

It is such a devastating news to hear that our beloved and respected Headmaster – Mr. S. J. Lowcock had passed away at TKO Hospital this afternoon. Though Mr. Lowcock will no longer be with us, his spirit and his teachings will forever live.
May Mr. Lowcock rest in peace!

It is with profound sadness that we received the news that Mr. SJ Lowcock has departed and we won’t have the opportunity to express our gratitude to him in person. Our hearts are filled with fond memories from our days at DBS which were made possible only because of Mr. Lowcock’s dedication to the school that he loved so much and the students that he cared about deeply. Farewell, Mr. Lowcock, we will continue to carry the torch you have passed on to us.
