Christopher N. Bowman

It´s Thanksgiving time again... I remember the Thanksgiving dinner my mom and I had with Chris while he was on tour with Ice Capades in Worcester, MA. It was 1992. We had met Chris earlier in the year at the `92 Worlds in Oakland. We had come to see him on tour... we met him after the show in the hallway of the hotel... he seemed lonely and kind of alone... my mom invited him to join us for dinner, and he graciously accepted. He was a lovely man, and deeply missed.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

To all of Chris' family and friends:

I am just seeing this for the first time. I have not skated competitively in decades so did not know of his passing. I am shocked in this moment. I did not know him personally but like many others he was one of few skaters I always loved to see skate.

I remember when I marshalled Pacific Coast Championships I was so taken by his maturity on the ice, I think he was around 10 years old then (maybe skating Novice Men?). He was barely taller than...

Thought about you on this day. You were amazing.
Wish I had known you, or at least met you. Hope you are peaceful and happy.

Gone but not forgotten. My prayers are with you and your family.

I can't believe you gone, you were great on the ice, I watched you all the time, I could get my eyes off you. Rest in peace. May God Bless you and your family.

We remember and miss a vivid personality and a talented skater. I can still see him, charming us all with a wink and a grin, so handsome and so much fun to watch on the ice. Rest in peace, "Hans Brinker from......"!
