Lowe has also served on several community boards, including
New Horizons, a drug, alcohol and mental-illness facility on the
Treasure Coast. He’s also on the board of directors of the St. Lucie

It was supporting the American Cancer Society years ago that
enabled Lowe and Sharon to meet in the mid-1970s when the
Chicago native was general manager of Nash Pontiac Cadillac on
South U.S. 1 in Fort Pierce.
Sharon, who came to Florida from Minnesota, likes to tell
the story:
“I was doing a bike-a-thon for the Cancer Society and I stopped
at Nash Pontiac Cadillac because I knew some of the salesmen,”
Sharon said. “I said, ‘Would you sponsor me for this bike-a-thon,’
and they said, ‘No, we’re not going to do it, but our boss will.’
“So, they sent me in to meet Bob Lowe,” Sharon said. “He sponsored
me for the bike-a-thon and when I walked out, he said to
his sales people, ‘I might try to marry that girl.’ And, about a year
and a half later, we got married in 1977. So, pretty crazy.”
There’s nothing crazy for what happened next for Lowe.
It was after Lowe discovered that the dealership was being
sold that he became a licensed broker in 1984. It was the start of
a successful career that spanned three offices — Lowe Realty in
