On the leap year evening of Feb 29, 2024, Lowell Duane Sedler went to be with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ peacefully in his home in Cambridge, MN after battling with Alzheimer’s Dementia. Lowell was 90 years old. Lowell’s special request was that his service be a complete celebration that he went home to be with His Lord. Therefore, please join us March 8th at First Baptist Church, Cambridge. A public visitation will be at 10 AM followed by a Celebration of Life at 11 am. A luncheon will be served following the service. In lieu of flowers/plants, donations can be made to the Community Care – First Baptist Church.
Lowell was born to Milton & Ellen (Stoltenow) Sedler on June 6, 1933 in Great Bend, ND. A 1951 graduate of Wahpeton HS, he served in the US Army for 2 years and moved to Minneapolis in 1956. On August 9, 1958 he married the love of his life Eleanor (Ellie) Leavitt. In spite of his dementia he continued to call out to Ellie until his death. Lowell worked for Minneapolis Moline, Control Data/Ceridian and retired in 1988; at which time he and Ellie owned and operated Country Care Lawn Service & he worked part time for Sartec Corporation & Ever Cat Fuels.
Lowell leaves to cherish his memory, his wife Ellie of 65 years, children Darren (Linda) Sedler, Donice (Ray) VanGilst, Deana (Troy) Bondy and grandchildren; Leah, Anna (Jason), Charissa (Brent), Jeremiah (Becca), JJ, Jonathon (Anna), Nathaniel (Chantelle), Abigail (Ryan), Lindsay (Mark), Megan (Timon), Josiah & Travis (Emma) and 24 great grandchildren. Sadly he was preceded in death by his parents, his in-law parents and his siblings Larry, Gerald, & Patricia and sister-in-law Mary & brothers-in-law, Ken, George and Greg.
Lowell enjoyed traveling, camping, fishing, woodworking and helping a friend make maple syrup. He was known for being a hard worker and being involved in volunteer church ministry. He cherished time with his family & friends the most.
