Lucille Elizabeth (Dewart) Rowe - October 5, 1948 – February 6, 2021

Lucille Elizabeth (Dewart) Rowe, known as Beth by family and friends, passed away on February 6, 2021. She grew up in Beverly, Massachusetts and later moved to Washington D.C, and Silver Spring, Maryland where she worked and raised her family. She had an extensive career in child education and was a passionate advocate and volunteer for refugee assistance, hunger and homelessness prevention and environmental protection.
Throughout her life, Beth spent a portion of most summers as a member of the Tadoussac community. Beth grew up spending Sundays here in this chapel, sitting in her family pew while listening to her dad deliver Sunday services. She loved hymns and enthusiastically participated in ALL choruses while her cousin Grace, and later cousin Susie played the organ.
Beth cherished her memories of her times as a kid roaming Languedoc Park and Hovington Farm, playing Kick the Can, participating in Treasure Hunts, swimming in the lake and hotel pool, picnicking at the beach and attending bonfires and tennis club dances. Beth cherished these memories of a simple, wholesome time enjoying nature’s gifts.
Like many of us, Tad was a place that Beth always returned to year after year as a place of respite and restoration. Beth loved the scent of the woods, the songs of birds, the thrill of sighting a whale or a shooting star. She particularly enjoyed reuniting with extended family and childhood friends who will always remember her broad, beautiful, infectious smile, her open, selfless, and giving heart and deep, abiding love for nature and family.
She is preceded in death by her former husband Clarence Rowe and her parents, Ann and the Reverend Russell Dewart. She is survived by her two sons, Jesse and Keith, her brothers Timothy, Alan, Brian, and William, and her sister Judith.
