Dana Mower Obituary
February 18, 1956 ~ November 28, 2012
Dana died doing what he loved the most, skiing a black diamond mogul run after a fresh snow fall of 36 inches on a gloriously sunny day in Sun Valley, Idaho. One of his last phone calls, of course from the ski hill, was "It's just perfect, just perfect." Dana had an enlarged heart which led to a heart attack on the Christmas Lift Chair on Mount Baldy. He was skiing alone, knowing how sweet it was to catch the last run of the day. The quiet. The joy. The connection he felt to the God Dana knew.
Dana lived with passion and dignity and invention. His soul ran deep. Dana left this world with no fear.
Dana leaves behind his mother Lois Mower and his siblings, Larry Mower, Greg Mower, Linda Turner, and Scott Mower. And Dana leaves behind Christine Leiren Mower, the love of his life for 37 years.
The memorial will be held at:
Neighborhood Church
2802 Bridgeport Way W.
University Place, WA 98466 on Tuesday, Dec. 11 at 1:00 p.m.
