James D. Mowris Obituary

I did not know James personally but wanted to let his family and friends know that the staff from USMCFP Springfield where James worked have not forgotten him. There is a memorial to commemorate his service and sacrifice on display to honor his memory.

It has been years and yet I still find myself thinking about Mow and the friendship we had. Few people were closer to me. He was a great friend and soldier. He will always have a place in my heart. You will never be forgotten. You live on in the minds and hearts of all the people you came in contact with. Rest in peace my friend.

Thinking of Jim, and the good times we had fishing in Honduras and ft Carson. James was a great guy my deepest sympathies to his wife and Children...

Serving with you in Somalia was an honor, you are always on my mind, may peace be with your family.

To the family and friends of Staff Sgt. James D. Mowris:
It has truly been my honor to sign James' guest book these past few years. Unfortunately, due to complications from my Multiple Sclerosis, this may be the last message I'm able to write. Please forgive me and know that James will always be remembered in my home.

Michelle, I am Hazel's daughter and this is to let you know even after so many years, your husband is still in a lot of peoples prayers & thoughts.

It is difficult to know what to say since I want to express my sincere sympathy to the family and friends of Staff Sgt Mowris. Please know that your loved one is not forgotten. I wish everyone impacted by this tragic loss strength and peace. I hope that Staff Sgt Mowris knew that there are people in America who respect his great courage in serving as a member of the US military. Although I did not know him, I know that he must have been a very special person to be willing to do something that most Americans will never have to experience, and for that we can never say thank you enough.
Thank you Staff Sgt Mowris!

You are remembered and respected. Thank you Staff Sgt Mowris!

I don't pretend to know what to say or do that would bring you peace in your time of sorrow, but I will offer my heart felt condolences. I also offer you my prayers that in time the pain will easy and the memories of your HERO will carry you through each day and night. I want to thank your HERO, for his/her selfless act of becoming a member of the armed forces, his/her willingness to defend the United States of America, all that we hold sacred and for the sacrifice that will forever be etched in the memories of all those who knew him/her. Though tears can never bring him/her back, we hope that our tears express our gratitude for the sacrifice that he/she made and our sorrow at his/her passing. I believe for every fallen HERO there is a star shining brightly up above to remind us of the precious gift we were given.

Your mission on earth is complete and you are now a member of GOD’s Heavenly armed forces. Stand down brave warrior and take your rightful place in Heaven with all the HEROES who have passed before.

I made a special promise to LE RON A. WILSON (KIA on 07/06/07) on the day he was laid to rest as I touched his coffin, that I would never forget him nor would I forget those that gave their lives for our country before him, with him and after him and so when I came across www.legacy.com, I thought what a great way to keep my promise to Le Ron, so I will continue to leave tributes in each guest book until the day there is no longer the need to leave these tributes to a FALLEN HERO.

REST IN PEACE, HERO, YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!

It is still amazing to me how people still remember and honor my husband. A great husband, father, son and friend. I love you Doug forever.

God Bless the Mowris family. SSG Mowris' legacy is one to be proud of. I, too, am an MP and now a retired Army Reservist. Men and women like SSG Mowris are what make this country great.

We miss him as our beloved former 1984 CLHS classmate and friend...

Our prayers are with his wife, kids, and entire family and friends always..

Doug was a good caring person and could always cheer you up with a smile and laughter.. <> <
