Gary Lowe was a well-known figure in non league football in Manchester, a hugely successful manager at both
@CurzonAshton and
@hydeunited, and the father of our very own
@benito_lowe98.
He was taken from us far too soon, and it is perhaps fitting that the game which is closest to the anniversary of his passing will be between his son's team and one with whom he secured a historic promotion to the Conference National.
We will be joined by members of Gary's family for tomorrow's game, and will be celebrating his life with a minute's applause prior to kick off.
