I am comforted by the fact that Geez is finally at rest awaiting the coming of our Savior. I have many fond memories of times spent together as a family and I've missed his sense of humor since he got sick. He was a great father-in-law to me and I wish I could've come to say my goodbyes.
May God grant you comfort in knowing that he is resting in His arms awaiting a joyous reunion with his family in Heaven.
He was a good example to his children, grandchildren and friends. He will truly be missed and I look forward to giving him a big hug in Heaven.
Love to you all,

I miss George Bowen! He was my first boss at the Review and Herald and I learned a lot from him about printing and publishing. We loved how George would push his glasses up above his eyebrows, then could bring them down with one quick move of those eyebrows! At first look, one might think George was a bear--those who knew him knew that he was really a teddy bear after all.
I will always have good memories from the nine years we worked together. He was a good friend and boss.
Kay, I know you and the family also have many good memories and I pray that those memories will comfort you in the coming days.
