Dennis was a skilled welder, but his true passion extended beyond his profession. A dedicated member of Agape Worship Center, he fervently loved attending Sunday School, participating in worship, and engaging with the teachings of the Bible. At one point, he served as a Deacon at Light House Pentecostal Holiness Church, where he made lasting connections that enriched his life and the lives of others. An undeniable NASCAR junkie, Dennis had a zest for life that was infectious, often sharing his enthusiasm with anyone he met. He never met a stranger, and his warm spirit drew people to him. His greatest joy came from his family. Dennis adored his wife, Barbara Lowry, and held a deep love for his children, Dennis Jr., Jennifer (Lowry) Jackson, and Angel (Atkins) Grays. He was a doting grandfather to Gabriel Jackson, Israel Jackson, and Robin (Pahler) Lowry, cherishing every moment spent together. One of his favorite treats was chocolate gravy, and he loved sharing meals and laughter with his loved ones. His faith in Jesus was paramount, guiding him through life and inspiring those around him. 

Dennis is survived by his wife, Barbara Lowry of Hayti, MO; his children, Dennis Lowry, Jr. of Moore, OK, Jennifer Jackson of Memphis, TN, and Angel Grays of Caruthersville, MO; and siblings: Void Lowry Sr., Billy Lowry, Cheryl (Lowry) Warren, and Peggy (Lowry) Ward.
