Nicole Lowrie

Nicole was incredibly warm, kind and welcoming. As treasurer of the Parents association, Nicole was endlessly patient and always had a friendly smile. It was a treat to watch her ascend to President. Rest in Power Nicole!

Miss your beautiful smiling face. Your enthusiasm always inspired me.

I first meet Nicole when Peyton was entering Kindergarten. I was so happy to see another sister at JTD. She was more than just a JTD parent to me, and I was not just another staff member to her. From passing Payton off in the Miracle Mile to bringing homework to Baldwin Hills, I had Lowrie's back. My heart will miss Nicole.

Nicole, you were one of my favorite JJLA moms! Because of this fact, I was devastated to hear of your passing. I have many fond memories of you both via J&J LA and because our daughters attended Debbie Allen Dance Academy during the same period. (I saw you in the Hot Chocolate Nutcracker documen-tary!! Niara was in it too).

One memory I have of Nicole is that she was the first person that I saw, that I knew, when I arrived at my first J&J National Convention in Palm Desert in 2016. She provided the usual pleasantries as she registered me but she did more. Nicole said to me, "We like it when new members jump right in attending conventions and joining committees." Nicole, you made me feel welcome and validated. I will never forget your kindness.

My second outstanding memory of Nicole is that we were at a Group 4 activity in 2018 or 2019, discussing what our kids were doing over the Summer. You mentioned that your girls would be attending "away" camp (in the mid-West I believe). I was mortified and conveyed this to you. You said that every California mother that you had discussed this with, had, had the same reaction that I had. You went to great lengths to explain that attending "away" camp was commonplace in the Midwest. I so appreciate you taking the time to share your world view with me and taking the time to connect with me. You had a Mid-western sensibility that I found refreshing. I will miss you!

I went to Whitney young high school with Nikki. She shaped many of my wonderful memorIes of high school. The fun we all had , like a big family. I will always remember nikki and keep her spirit and family in My Heart and prayers.

Nicole is one of the warmest, nicest, and actively dedicated women I have known. Her pure joy and love of fun are contagious. Her girls have an amazing guardian angel. I will miss my Jack and Jill sister.

Dear Nnamdi, Peyton, and Paige, Nicole was a very special person that one doesn't meet often in this world. You have been given a gift of being part of her. I was so hoping in our future she and I could work together since I so respected her in her depth, understanding of people, her kindness and her wisdom. I will think of her often.

JJLA protocol chair stopped me at the door because my pantyhose were dark brown and not my "flesh" color. Nicole, being always prepared, reached into her bag and pulled out an extra pair of hose for me! We laughed so hard while I changed under the table. I will miss her! Rest well Nicole.

Nicole was such a beautiful person. Consistently welcoming and warm. She was always willing to help, and would go above and beyond. Everyone knew she loved her family with her whole heart, and Peyton & Paige were the center of her world. She was greatly loved and will be greatly missed.

Greetings Lowrie family. My prayers and thoughts are with you all Rhonda Tribble (Jack and Jill mom and prior KP CO-worker)

Dear Nnamdi, Peyton and Paige, I am so saddened by Nicole’s unexpected passing. I enjoyed working with her at JTD, talking about secondary schools, and looked forward to hiking with her in our neighborhood. I’ve enjoyed being a part of Hudson’s care all these years. If there’s anything I can do to help during this difficult time, please let me know. With deepest sympathy, Dr Kim Carvalho- Faucher ( Hudson’s vet)

Our heart is simply broken for you and words can not express adequately our condolences. Nicole was a beautiful, generous spirit, always willing to help others. We met while volunteering together at the hot chocolate nutcracker where she always showed up for the long hours with her wonderful smile. Our prayers are with your family. Dionne & Jaiden

Nicole and family, Your warm spirit and zest for the JTD community will be sorely missed. I’ll forever hold our time together in the PA as well as Kindergarten cooking moms in a special place of my heart. Rest In Peace.

This news about Nicole was devastating. We are sending love and well wishes to Nnamdi, Peyton and Paige. Nicole was definitely resourceful with anything kid or school related. She was my go to when I started looking for schools. She was super excited to help me through the process. We will miss her dearly.. The Patikas-Hunter's

Lowrie family: My thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Nicole was always so warm, patient and giving of herself to the JTD community. I will miss her.

With the dedication Nicole displayed to her girls happiness, she showed me a path to mothering my own children. Paige, I send you my love and the biggest/longest hug. I ask that you dance for the joy of it. Peyton and Paige you each have drive, wit and such a light within you that resembles your Mom’s glow. She will be with you always. Mrs.Ebony

From the moment I met Nicole, I felt her good spirit! She was always warm, welcoming and not to mention had a great smile. Just beautiful inside and out! The Jack and Jill family will truly miss her. Sending prayers, love and comfort to the entire family during this time. Rest In Peace Nicole ❤️

To the Fackler and Lowrie families, I wish you peace in this time of sorrow, but hope you will rejoice in knowing that Nicole's life positively touched the lives of many.

We are sorry for your loss of Nicole. We will continue to support you and your family.

I can’t express my heartbreak any eloquent form. I am so saddened by her passing. She was so thoughtful and lovely. A real friend.

Nnamdi, I have been at a loss for the words to share. Everytime I think of Nicole no longer on this earth to share her light, I breath life into you. She was truly a gift, a model of grace, kindness, purpose, and doing it all to the fullest. May you be strong in holding up her legacy and carrying her torch. Sending love to you and the girls. You are not alone

Dear Nnamdi, Peyton and Paige, Please know that we are thinking of you during this very difficult time. We send our prayers and much love. With our Deepest Sympathy, Willie and Dorothy Reed
