More detail on this person: He was diagnosed
in May 2006 with ALS, as are many military
personnel. Though a Viet Nam veteran, Jimmy Don
returned relatively unscared from his tour of
duty. We were privileged to attend the yearly
convention in Dallas and he re-met several men he
had served with in Viet Nam.
Jimmy Don had recently retired from Petroleum
Helicopters, Inc. after 35 years of flying in the
Gulf, and lived with his wife Virginia in Conroe,
Texas. He is also survived by his daughter Kendra
Lowry, who recently returned to Houston to help
take care of her dad, his son Greg of Cedar City,
Utah, his loving sister Glenda of Huntington, West
Virginia, and first wife Lynda of Cedar City,
Utah, who lived through the Viet Nam years with
Jimmy Don.
In loving memory of a wonderful husband, Virginia
Lowry
