Alexander “Alika” Kaina Lowe
Jan. 15, 1970 – Nov. 21, 2024
Alexander “Alika” Kaina Lowe, 54, of Lāʻie, Hawaiʻi, and Kuna, Idaho, passed away on Nov. 21, 2024, after a courageous battle with cancer. Born in Kahuku on Jan. 15, 1970, Alika had a gift for connecting with people from a young age. His positive energy, humor, and kindness left a lasting impression on everyone who knew him.
Alika was a proud graduate of Kahuku High School. After graduation, he served a mission in the Philippines, where his charisma flourished. Upon returning, he attended Ricks College, Idaho State University, and ITT Tech, later earning a degree in Information Systems and Cybersecurity. His technical expertise and approachable nature helped him thrive at Blue Cross of Idaho, where he loved both his work and colleagues. Beyond his career, Alika was an active member of the Pacific Islander community in Idaho, a beloved figure who regularly participated in events and formed lasting bonds.
He is survived by his mother, Yvonne Lowe-Hernandez; his significant other, Mitzi Burrus; his brother, Dexter Lowe; his sister-in-law, Jannette Lowe; his nephew, Shaun “Ikaika” Lowe; and his niece, Sierrah Lowe. He was predeceased by his maternal grandparents, George Kaina Lowe and Katherine Lowe, and his paternal grandparents, Moses Solomon, Sr., and Malia Fonoimoana Solomon. Alika’s final days were spent at home, surrounded by those who loved him – just as he had always surrounded others with love and warmth.
A Celebration of Life will be held at Hukilau Beach Park in Lāʻie, Hawaiʻi at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, June 14, 2025.
