Prospect Heights in Brooklyn in Kings County, New York — The American Northeast (Mid-Atlantic)
Rev. Benjamin J. Lowry
D.D. Ph.D. L.L.D.
Universalist scholar. Dedicated to religious service, his inner strength and manifest practice of the spiritual values he teaches will always be a force among us.
Life has taught me that there is no substitute for persistence and hard work. No matter how gifted or talented an individual, life does not guarantee him success. Successful and worthwhile lives come from consecration, dedication, persistence and faith in God.
Erected 1982 by Zion Baptist Church and the community.
