Dad I will certainly miss you. From the moment I met you and Mom Bowers I fell in love with both of you and Debbie and David. I have such wonderful memories of my second family. You were such a dedicated officer (Christian), one who showed such love and compassion for everyone. You had such an impact on the people of Windsor when you were stationed here. You will never be forgotten by me and I will always hold you in my heart. So glad we had a wonderful chat just after Christmas. Love you Dad and give Mom Bowers my love.

Dad. Thank you for everything you have done for us all. You were a good father. My memories will be with me forever. My heart break knowing I will never hold your hand again or hear your voice. We will be together again. Until then you will forever be in my heart. You have touched the lives of so many. Everyone who knew you, loved you. You were a good man. A great father. A great husband. A great brother. An awesome friend to many. And one of the best Salvation Army Ministers that I know of. I don't say this just because you are my father. I say this because you were. God had already told you how proud his is of you. Soldier of Christ, WELL DONE!!!!

Major "Bill" Bowers was truly an amazing guy. Ive met few people with such a strong passion for helping the homeless and those less fortunate. He was a dear friend and will be missed.
