Obituaries
Grand Junction Daily Sentinel page 6B Obituary - December 3, 2013
Irene Lucille Lowell, age
95, died at a son’s home on
November 29, 2013, of causes
associated with a stroke suffered
earlier in the year.
She was born April 1, 1918, in
Kersey, Colorado to Walter B.
Sanders, Sr. and Anna Louise
Sanders (Ballinger). She was the
second of four children and the
oldest daughter.
She was raised in a very loving
family with her parents and
siblings. She saw her mother
take in and feed and clothe the
homeless and others who were
down even though they had
little themselves. That legacy
of service was manifest in her
own life of thoughtful service to
others. At age 18, she married
Kenneth W. Lowell on July 25,
1936, in Denver, Colorado where
they made their first home.
Irene is the mother of three sons, Kenneth Jr., Keith, and Kevin.
She moved with her husband and children to Grand Junction,
Colorado where Kenneth Sr. operated a successful ceramic tile
subcontracting business for 22 years. In August 1956, she and her
sons became members of the LDS Church in which she dedicated
58 years of service.
Irene loved to cook. When there was a meal to be prepared and
served at a missionary zone conference, or at a church bazaar, or
at a church budget dinner, Irene was the person asked to organize,
cook, and serve the meal.
Irene is preceded in death by her son, Keith, in 1957; by her
husband of 52 years, Kenneth Sr., in 1987; by her parents, Walter
and Anna, and by her siblings, Walter Jr., Madalene Seyfer, and
Gladys Burkhart. She is survived by two sons, Kenneth Jr. (Jo) and
Kevin (Carol); by 53 grandchildren; great-grandchildren, and greatgreat-
grandchildren.
Funeral services will be held on Tuesday, December 3rd at the
LDS meetinghouse at 165 S. 1000 E. in Bountiful, Utah at 11:00
a.m. The family will receive well-wishers from 9:30 - 10:30 just
prior to the service as well as for 30 minutes immediately following
the service. Burial will be in Denver Colorado.
