Kenneth Lowrey

peacefully April 28, 2026.

Kenneth was born on August 10, 1943 in New York, New

York, son of the late Howard Lowrey, Sr. and Mary (Hinchey)

Lowrey and spent his early childhood growing up in the

Greenwich Village neighborhood in lower Manhattan. As a

teen he moved to CT where he graduated from RHAM High

School, class of 1961.

He proudly served in the Air Force from 1964-1968, where he

was certified in aircraft pneudraulics, and completed a tour in

Vietnam. Toward the end of his military service he met the

love of his life, Thelma Elizabeth (Gilman) Lowrey. They were

married on July 25, 1970 at Sacred Heart Church in

Norwichtown, CT. Together they built a life dedicated to each

other, family and adventure.

In 1982, Kenneth moved his young family to Boca Raton, FL,

where he worked as an Electrical Engineer at The Miami

Herald until his retirement. Though he made Florida his home

he couldn’t leave behind the charm of New England and

established a tradition of spending summers in CT. He

enjoyed the outdoors and embraced the RV lifestyle traveling

many miles up and down the east coast and throughout New

England. His journeys were often accompanied by an eclectic

mix of his favorite music, and no trip was complete without

stopping at a point of historical significance along the way.

He will be deeply missed and forever remembered by those

who knew and loved him.

Kenneth is survived by his daughter Pamela Bruni, her

husband Chris; his son Kenneth M. Lowrey, his wife Violet

and four grandchildren Harrison and Meryl, Jimmy and

Emma.

Kenneth is also survived by his three brothers, Howard

Lowrey(June), Jimmy Lowrey and Bob Lowrey(Sue) and his

sister Laura Storta(John). As well as multiple generations of

beloved nephews and nieces.

Kenneth is preceded in death by his wife of almost 50 years

Thelma Elizabeth (Gilman) Lowrey.

Graveside services will be held June 4, 2026. More details to
