Katherine L. “Kitty” Jacobs Lowe, 99, of Chambersburg, PA, went to be with her Lord on Tuesday, November 24, 2015 at The Village of Laurel Run, Fayetteville, PA. Born February 10, 1916 in Chambersburg, PA, she was the daughter of the late Albert S. and Esther M. (Carmack) McCans. She attended the Chambersburg First Church of God for many years and was a member of the Ever Faithful Sunday School Class.
Mrs. Lowe worked at the former Gray Line Hosiery Mill for about five years until she married William W. Jacobs in June of 1944. After his death, she served at Menno Haven for seven years as a nurse’s aide. She was a member of the Chambersburg Mall Walkers Club for many years and enjoyed her time with the Chambersburg Activity Senior Center.

She is survived by a sister, Waneta Mae (McCans) Geiman of Chambersburg; a niece Vickie Lee (Geiman) Wenger, wife of Ronald, of Chambersburg; and a nephew Gary E. Geiman and wife Brenda (Klutas) of St. Thomas; three step-children, Janet Lowe Ward and William E.
