Lillie Ayers Lowery, age 94, went home to be with the Lord on December 26, 2025, surrounded by her loving family and friends. She lived a life grounded in faith, service, and devotion to those she loved and her lord.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Roy C. Lowery, retired military; her daughter, Sandra A. Hanks (Jerryl); and her grandson, John D. Lowery (Beth).
She is survived by her son, Ronald E. Lowery (Patricia); three grandchildren, Tamara C. Witte (John), Christopher P. Lowery (Brandy), and William M. Lowery (Jessica); and one cherished great-grandchild, Olivia P. Lowery, all whom brought her immense joy.
