Barbara Bowling Obituary

Bowling (Dixon), Barbara Jean

8/10/1935 – 4/17/2023. Barbara passed away at 87 years of age at Bethany Lutheran Village in Washington Township, where she had been a resident. No services are planned, as she had generously made a gift of her remains to the Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine Anatomical Gift Program. The family suggests that a tribute donation may be made in her honor, to the Alzheimer's Association or to Hospice of Dayton.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
