Gloria Coreen "Lace" Lowry Adams Obituary (1941

CELEBRATING THE LIFE AND LEGACY OFMrs. Gloria Coreen "Lace" Lowry Adams We gather here today to celebrate the life and legacy of Gloria Lowry Adams-a woman whose presence brought light and joy to all who had the privilege of knowing her. Gloria lived her life with an unwavering spirit and a zest for adventure. From her early days in Elkhart, Indiana, to her lifelong home in Trimble County, Kentucky, she embraced every opportunity that came her way. At the age of 18, she began her life, marrying Larry Powell, with whom she was blessed with three handsome sons. In her 35th year, Gloria found love once again, marrying James David Lee. Although their time together was brief, it was a beautiful union. On June 25, 1988, Gloria wed husband Hubert Allen Adams in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, a union that would span over four decades. Gloria worked as a talented seamstress, and later, as a clerk at the Dollar General Store, Gloria's warm smile and friendly nature brightened the lives of her customers. But perhaps her greatest joy came from spending time with her family and loved ones. A devoted daughter, sister, aunt, wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and homemaker, Gloria's unconditional love and nurturing spirit knew no bounds. Whether it was traveling with her husband Allen, indulging in her passion for music, or penning heartfelt songs with her son Chris, Gloria made every moment count. Her love for golf, dancing, racecars, and tending to her beautiful flowers showcased her vibrant spirit and zest for life. Above all, Gloria cherished the time spent with her children and grandchildren, creating lifelong memories that will forever be treasured. Gloria's faith was an anchor in her life. As a founding member of Carrollton Family Worship Church, she found solace, guidance, and unwavering support in her church community. Her faith in God served as a beacon of light that guided her through life's challenges and brought her immeasurable comfort and peace. On January 28, 2024, Gloria's beautiful journey on this earth came to a peaceful end at her home in Pendleton, Kentucky. While our hearts may be heavy with grief, let us find solace in the knowledge that Gloria is now united with her Heavenly Father. She is preceded in death by her late husband, JD Lee, and her sons, Steve and Rodney Powell. She is held in the loving embrace of her parents, James Clinton and Frances Guyton Lowry, along with her siblings who preceded her in death, "J.C." Lowry (Shirley), Annabell "Dolly" Cobalt (Butch), Hazel May (L.G.), and Brenda Qualls (Bill). Today, we celebrate the everlasting impact Gloria had on our lives and the legacy she leaves behind. She is survived by her devoted husband of 44 years, Allen Adams; her son, Chris Powell (Jennifer); her beloved granddaughters, Chelsea Powell Buchanan (Heath) and Bonnie Miller Bowling (Ty); their mother Teresa Miller Gossom (Kenny); her great-grandchildren, Sawyer, Ayden, Myles, and Pyper; her stepdaughter, Tandy Lynn Meyer (Tom), and her step-grandchildren, Ashley, Cameron, and Josh. Gloria will also be dearly missed by her brother, Hubert Lowry (Vanetta), her sisters Sandy Barrier (Elvin), Dorothy Alexander (Glenford), Joyce Lurch, countless nieces, nephews, friends, and family members. As we gather to celebrate Gloria, let us remember the joy, love, and laughter that embodied her life. Let her memory be a reminder to embrace each day with enthusiasm, to cherish the company of loved ones, and to nurture our passions and dreams. While we may shed tears of sorrow, let them also be tears of gratitude for having been touched by the light that was Gloria Lowry Adams.
