A wonderful Teacher, Coach, Father and Man. Rest In Peace

Dear Michael and Family, I am truly sorry for your loss. Your Dad is a true part of Milton history and his memory will live on in so many... Mr. Bowes was quite a guy with stories abound; and often a life lesson involved in that story. He often came into PO Boxes years back to buy stamps and would stay and talk to me, and what he said always mattered. It was always such a pleasure to bump into your Dad. God Bless You All.

Jack, Sorry for your loss. Jake Muldoon

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Rest in Peace Coach

Jack, Mike and Tim,
I will always remember my conversations with your dad at the Villa Rosa. He was a true gentleman. He was a great guy. Always made me laugh!

Sorry for your familly's loss.

I first learned a delight in words ~ their playfulness, and their power ~ from Mr. Bowes. Many still resonate in my head, as I recall the energy and excitement he brought to his classroom. Grateful for having had him as a teacher for a year, I send my best thoughts for healing and remembrance to all of the Bowes family, and to the many others whose lives he touched and made better.

To the entire Bowes family,
Your dad is one of the great men. He touched so many lives and I am grateful for his advice & encouragement through the years. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

All that knew Jack, recognized his devotion to his family and students. Some will remember him most for his"hello please"greeting, I will remember him as a man who only did what was the honest thing to do!
