Tate Bowers Memoriam

IN LOVING MEMORY OF TATE JUSTIN BOWERS 1/27/81 ~ 10/1/05 So many words dance in my head when this date draws near but none that adequately describe how it feels to lose a child. Rather than the raw feeling of a paper cut across my heart during the first years, I feel an ache where the Tate place of my heart is so broken. I miss your handsome face, your big strong hugs, your generous heart, your wise old soul, your funny, funny sense of humor and the times when being in your life pushed me to grow as a mom and human being. Keep visiting us in our dreams sweet son. The world and I miss you so much! All our love Your family and friends

To: Tate's family and friends,

What a handsome young man. I just lost my son GLEN TYSON ALEXANDER at 23 on 7-2-10 (see obit on PE 7-10-10). I was just telling my friend today how our house is not the same without him. Him and his friends were always laughing and joking around. Glen would bar-b-q the best food. He also gave big hugs and had a unique way of understanding other people who were struggling.

If you are in the neighborhood of Harvest Christian Church in Riverside, they have a bereavement group that meets the 1st and 3rd Monday of every month. I would love to see you there and meet you.

I know we will never forget our sons, nor would we want to. How much we miss them just reinforces the fact of what great guys they were.

My love to all of Tate's family. I can see just by looking at his picture what a remarkable young man he was.

Sincerely,
Margaret Alexander ([email protected])
