Mary T Bowman

Hello old friends from East Nassau. Mary and I spent many afternoons together growing up in East Nassau. You will remember me, Susan Laier. I loved Mary and laughed with her often as we discussed all kinds of issues and shared all kinds of activities. I wanted so much to visit with her again but now I guess I'll have to wait to see her in the hereafter. Kevin, if you're coming to East Nassau any time soon please contact me at 518 733-5931. I live in Stephentown with a classmate of...

Mary was a true renaissance woman, with her varied interests, talents and love of life. Her bright light will be missed.

Mary was married to my cousin, Clem Bowman. From their beautiful wedding in the snow, Mary in a red dress, to sailing on the Skylark together to Nassau we always had fun together. Just not enough time.

It never mattered how long between visits because when we were together it was as if we had never been apart. You only get a friend like that once in a lifetime. Mary was my boat sanding friend on Schatzie, my water buddy on Skylark, my competitor at any game she hoped to win, my entertainment (the jousting. Peeps), a talented artist who gave us watercolors of Charley and Schatzie and a beloved friend to laugh with. I will miss her always.

This picture of Mary so beautiful convey's her spirit! I remember when our "cello" group joined her at the beach and flew kites and soaked in the sun....I distinctly remember that day because it was my first time to really hang with her and I was so struck by her independent spirit, her strength and self-confidence. So thankful Mary that you are a part of my story....

My heart is broken. We have had some fun times and sad times together. Best of all when I think of Mary I smile.
I wish that I had the chance to say good-bye.

Please accept my condolences. Mary was a year ahead of me at NLCS.
