of Little Rock, AR
February 9, 1966 - November 7, 2014
Maryetta Lademia Lowder, 48, of Little Rock died in her home November 7, 2014. She was born February 9, 1966, in Susanville, California to the late Raymond Claude Arnold Sr. and Violetta Mary Arnold.
She is survived by her husband, James Wesley Lowder, of 12 years; her mother, Violetta Mary Arnold; her brother, Raymond Claude Arnold Jr (Sherri); her sister, Vernadean Hope Webb (Ron); her step-son, Jason Lowder; her daughter-in law, Jessica Lowder; two grandchildren, Athena Lowder and Toudy Lowder; one nephew, James Arnold; three nieces: Salina Arnold, Thai Brazear, and Sirena Moix.
Maryetta was an active member of Liberty Missionary Baptist Church in Conway, Arkansas and was an Executive Assistant at Southern Farm Bureau Casualty Company where she worked for almost thirty years.

My condolences to you, Raymond.
Maryetta was a strong and amazing woman. She was such a good example of how we should do our best to be in church, and even if she was feeling poorly she was there with a smile on her face. She would always ask how others were doing despite her own condition. She will be deeply missed but we take comfort in knowing she is with the Lord.
Words cannot begin to express how sorry we are for family and friends in the loss of Maryetta. Our sympathy and prayers are with all during this loss. It was truly a blessing to have Maryetta a member of our church family for so long. Her faithfulness to the Lord's work was so evident in her life. May the Lord be with her family to comfort and strengthen in the days ahead, as only He can do. Bro. Gary & Sandra Moore
Maryetta was a TRUE friend,especially to one of my dearest friends, I loved her for that but I never let her know it. Life Is really to short, when we think o f her just smile, that smile will be missed.
We are sorry to hear of Maryetta passing. You will be in our thoughts & prayers.
When I was teaching at Mayflower High School, I had the pleasure of having Maryetta in class. There will never be another Maryetta. She was so nice to evreryone she came in contact with. Simple words cannot describe Maryetta. You had to meet her to
understand what a great person she was.
May you RIP.

I never had the pleasure of knowing Maryetta, but I know from our conversations recently, and from the posts on this guestbook, that she was one fine lady. I'm so sorry for your loss, and thinking of you now and in the days to come. May the bitterness of your loss be replaced gently over time by the sweetness of her memory.
Peace to you and the rest of the family. Hope to see you soon.

To her familly I pray that GOD gives you the grace and understanding you need at the very difficult time. God called this angel home and I can see her with her dad who she loved so very much. Maryetta I know we'll meet in heaven again one day. Love you girl!
I loved Maryetta and I know that she loved me. I have shared every milestone with her from my 5th birthday to my 48th birthday and everything in between. She loved me in spite of my faults and never judged me or held any of my actions against me. She has always been a true friend to me. My thoughts and prayers are with her family, now and always.
There could not be a sweeter, kinder or more caring person than Maryetta. She is a great example of strength, faith and hope. She fought till the end with hardly a complaint.

Maryetta is a beautiful light that will be missed in this world. Much love and healing thoughts to her family.
I was so shocked and saddened to read of Maryetta's passing. I worked with her over 28 years ago at Farm Bureau and am very lucky to have met her, be houstemates at one point but most of all have just have to known her. If I ever crossed paths with anyone associated with the Farm Bureau state office she was the first person I asked about. She had such an infectious smile and laughter. She was the type of person that once you knew her she never left your thoughts. One thing I know she LOVED her family and always spoke of them so highly. May her family find comfort and peace and you are all in my thoughts and prayers.
Will always have wonderful memories of Maryetta, such a sweet soul. God Bless all of her family with prayers of comfort right now.
Maryetta was one of the sweetest, kindest and most joyful people I ever had the privilege to know and work with. She will be greatly missed. My heart aches but it was an honor to have her as a friend. Prayers for her family and friends.
Sweet Maryetta. She was beautiful in every way. What a great example of strength and faith.
Maryetta was such an inspiration to everyone here at Farm Bureau. While we will miss you here on earth, we know you are dancing with the Angels in Heaven. God Bless you Maryetta, and may you rest in peace with our Father until we see you again.
Wes, we are so sad to hear about Maryetta. We remember her as such a sweet, wonderful person who was crazy about you. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
My heart is sad but I know that she is heaven. I thank God for letting me share laughs, hugs, and girl talk with such a sweet caring person.
She was by best friend for the 7 years I lived in Arkansas, and one of the most wonderful women I have had the great pleasure to love.
Maryetta was such a joy to be around. I trained her when she first started her career at Farm Bureau. I loved everything about her. She has touched so many people and will be greatly missed by all her friends & family.
To her family, I am so sorry for your loss.
Though I only knew Maryetta for a short time, she was the sweetest per I have ever known. She was always there to lend a hand and always a very chipper person despite her illness. She will be greatly missed.
We never understand why Love one's leave this Life so soon, But one's like Maryetta was probably called home to be a Angel. She was one of the sweetest people I have ever had the pleasure to meet. To the Family my thoughts and prayers are with you at this time.

My heart is broken that you are no longer here with us, but celebrating that you are with our Lord and no longer in pain. You were such an inspiration to myself and others during your fight with our nemesis...cancer. Know that you will always be in our hearts.
Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. What a great person that will be truly missed.
She is a wonderful person and will be missed dearly
Maryetta touched so many lives in more ways than she ever knew. I feel blessed to have been one of her friends and co-workers. Heaven gained an angel that we will truly miss. God give her family and friends comfort. Maryetta, we will see you again one day.
My prayers are with her family. She was a amazing lady. I Only had the honour of meeting her twice.
Maryetta, you were one of the friendliest neighbors I've ever had the privilege of living near. I enjoyed the few times I walked with you and Pepper, and the times you stopped by for a visit. I thank God you're no longer suffering, and I'm comforted in knowing that to be absent from the body is to be present with The Lord👼RIP Beautiful One
Maryetta was an amazing person. Putting everyone before herself, she wanted to take care of everyone and everything. She was courageous, patient, and above all, loving to everyone she knew. Maryetta always had a smile to give. She shown amazing strength through her long illness, never giving up. She is now in the loving arms of the lord. Although she is gone from us, she is no longer suffering. She will be deeply missed by all that knew and loved her.
What a sweetheart of a person to everyone she knew and came in contact with. Such a genuine person with a huge heart that always had a smile for everyone. You will be the Guardian Angel that watches over and protects us. You will be truly missed by us all.
Maryetta was my sister, Diane's, nearest & dearest best friend and my heart is broken that God has called home one of his most precious angels way too soon...She has left a hole in Diane's heart that can never be filled by any one else. I grieve for my sister and Maryetta's family because she was truly one of a kind, selfless, giving and such a pure soul that she will always be remembered lovingly and missed forever by all those who were blessed to know her.
Deepest Sympathy,
Diane's sister, Denae
