Kerilyn’s Biography
I grew up in the small Eastern Utah
town of Roosevelt as Kerilyn Lowe. I am the oldest of six children, all
of us doing musical and theatrical things together as a family and in
the community. We were together a lot as we helped my father in his produce
business and worked concessions for the Ute Indian tribal dances. I met
and married my husband, Olin, while at BYU where I graduated in Musical
Dance Theater. I now teach voice lessons at home and in the Music department
at BYU. Olin works at Action Target, Inc. in Provo and is a member of
the Search and Rescue Team for Utah County. We have four children: Savanna
(9), Porter (6), Kennedy (4) and Cooper (2).
