Philip H. Bowers

Condolences from your Oak Lawn neighbor, Karen Murphy, Jim and Velda's daughter.

I Remember all the band pictures hanging in your garage when we played at your house. You had great parents.

Dear Bowers Family,
I will always remember Mr. Bowers and family and how friendly he was when my brother, Larry, and I were playing at their house as little kids with Jay and Jeff on Harnew Road West in Oak Lawn. My sincere condolences to the whole family. Peter Hughes

I met Phil in 1959. We were both with New York Life Insurance Co. Phil decided to go into Management. He became the Manager of one of our Chicago Offices and was quite successful at that. Phil was always a fun guy to be around. I'm sorry I've not been
in touch with him for a long time. My condolences to Carol and his family. May he rest in peace.

Sorry to hear of Phil's passing. I fondly recall his wonderful trombone playing style and delightful personality, as he often played with my dad (Vince) in and around the LaGrange area for many years. Condolences to Carolyn and family.

All the girls loved Phil. He kept us laughing at Kroger in the office My husband to be and I sat for his first two or three kids. He was a great guy and REALLY one of a kind. He cooked a big pot of peel and eat shrimp to thank us for baby sitting. The end of an era. Hope Carolyn is all right. Phyllis Slattery Costello

Dear Aunt Carole and family,

Uncle Phil was a blessing to us all. He will live on through all the lives he touched and through his amazing family.

Will never forget his playing the trombone at my Grandmother's (his sister's) funeral, dancing through the isles in celebration of her life. The photo you chose brings back that memory!

Wishing you many blessings, peace and grace,
Amy Balderson Junod

I am sorry to hear of your passing uncle Phil and my condolences go out to the entire Bowers family.
