John W

Lowman Jr.

John Wesley Lowman, Jr., a native Baltimore, Maryland and a resident of Convent, LA, passed away on Tuesday, February 1, 2022 at the age of 77.

John Wesley Lowman, Jr. retired as a Publisher from the newspaper industry. He was an avid supporter of any sports team from Baltimore, Maryland (go Orioles!). As a very active member of St. Michael the Archangel Catholic Church, he also volunteered at the society of Saint Vincent de Paul and worked the election polls in Saint James Parish. An outgoing member of the Saint James Parish community, he never knew a stranger and could make friends with anyone he met.

John Wesley Lowman, Jr. was a family man through and through and spent his retirement days surrounded by his loving wife, children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, siblings, and extended family. Nothing in the world was more important to him than the family he often proclaimed he loved "more than life itself." His greatest accomplishment was uniting in love and acceptance a blended family from all walks of life. Though it pained him to leave his family behind, he can rest in peace knowing that same family will carry on his legacy.

He is survived by his loving wife of 36 years, Linda Lowman; his children, John Lowman (Rhonda), Stephen Lowman (Nancy), Alex Lowman, Christopher Lowman (Samantha), Hannah Errington (Jake Errington); grandchildren, Stephen Lowman (Amy), Chase, Brandon & Cameron Lowman, Braylen, Branson & Baker Errington, Jade Palermo (Jessica), Whitney Watkins (Evan), Kenny & Kobey Lowman, Lucian Lowman; great-grandchildren, Sophia, Jackson & Stephen Lowman, Braxton Palermo, Lincoln Watkins; siblings, Dorothea Lowman and Linda Mills.

He is preceded in death by his parents, John W. Lowman, Sr. (Shirley) and Dorothy Catanzaro (Gus) and son, Wesley Lowman.

A visitation will be held at St. Michael the Archangel Catholic Church on Monday, February 7, 2022 from 10:00 AM until funeral time.  A Mass of Christian Burial will take place at 11:00 AM.  Interment will follow in the church cemetery.

And Jesus said to him, "Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise." - Luke 23:43.
