Rayola Lowther

Rayola Hernan­dez Lowther was born in Pocatello, Idaho, on 05/20/1954, the third child of Manuel & Ethel Hernandez. Rayola was raised in Fort Hall and educated in Blackfoot, Idaho.
Rayola married Clyde M. Lowther on 07/17/1973 and moved to McCammon, Idaho, where they raised their family. She was blessed with two children, Beau Lowther (AnJanell) and Chelsea Lowther.
Rayola maintained a clean and comfortable home for her family and all who entered. She welcomed an exchange student from Sweden, Chris Fahlen along with Kaleb Gibbs during his senior year. Later in life, she made a home for her grandchildren, Anthony, Alyiah and Isabelle Gon­zales.
She is survived by her husband Clyde, children Beau & Chelsea, five grandchildren, Braeden, Alexxis, Anthony, Alyiah and Isabelle, brothers Bob and Les Hernandez. She will also be missed by many extended fam­ily members including aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her mother and father along with numerous cousins, aunts and un­cles.
Rayola suffered from a degenerative neurolog­ical condition that gradu­ally robbed her strength, her ability to speak and ultimately her life, how­ever, it could not take away her resolve, her intellect, her sense of hu­mor, or dim the love she had for her family.
Laura Bearnson was Rayola's care giver dur­ing her final months. We cannot adequately express our gratitude to her.
Our marriage was not always easy, but it was always worth the effort.
