Alys Lowry Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
She leaves her children to cherish her memory, Pam Brackbill and husband Ben, Patti Lowry, James Lowry and wife Dianne, and Ed Lowry and wife Andrea. Joan is also survived by 12 grandchildren – Ginny Griffin and husband David, Sam Brackbill, Matthew Brackbill, Cheri Markley and husband Tim, Morgan Lowry and husband David, Avriel Harley and husband Jonas, Jackson Lowry and wife Sierra, Margaret Lowry, Simone Lowry and fiancé Arron Artega, Campbell Lowry, Quinn Lowry, and Rose Lowry; as well as 11 great-grandchildren, and many more loving family members and friends.
Joan lived her life with dignity, grace, unwavering faith, and love in her heart for other people. As the former District Superintendent and Pastor for the Church of the Brethren, she served the Lord with her entire heart and soul. She also attended Crosspointe Church in Norman for a number of years. She enjoyed singing and playing the piano. Known for taking in any youngster who needed a safe place to call home, Joan provided a loving home to numerous foster children over the years, a testament to her deep love and care for others.
Faith and family were truly her guiding light throughout this life. Nothing made Joan more happy or proud than witnessing the people she loved thrive and succeed in their own lives. As we say goodbye to Joan Lowry, let us remember her for her love and commitment to the Lord, for her strength in the face of adversity, and for the unconditional love she provided to so many young souls who simply needed a safe place to be. She will be dearly missed, and her legacy will live on through the numerous lives she positively impacted during her 87 years on this earth.

I apologize for not making it to the funeral. Unfortunately, I would be coming back to Arkansas at night, and the weather forecast for Sunday night calls for severe thunderstorms along my route home with high winds, a good chance of hail and possibly tornadoes, and my night vision isn't what it used to be and I reluctantly decide to cancel the trip.
I was a kid when I met Aunt Joan. I confess to being a goofy and weird kid and although she acted like she wanted to box my ears, Aunt Joan rolled with it instead, for which I was always grateful. Instead she always offered me friendly, but wise advice that I always found valuable.
After she married Uncle Jim, my grandparents took my cousins and I to meet them in Albuquerque. Among my fixations, I had an intense desire to climb Mount Sandia, which towers over Albuquerque. She didn't laugh. Instead, she and Jim took on a long winding road to the top of the mountain. We left during a sunny day but the top of the mountain was cold and foggy. I learned I had a severe fear of heights and I could barely look down the mountain, let alone climb it. She didn't laugh, nor did she say 'I told you so.' She was a great aunt and a wonderful human being.
