John Blowers Obituary
HARBOR HILLS: A Funeral Mass for John Patrick Blowers, 54, of Harbor Hills, will be held at St. Francis de Sales Catholic Church, 10:30 A.M., Wednesday, May 11, 2016 with Fr. Dean Mathewson as celebrant; and Fr. Carl Subler, Fr. Bob Penhallurick, and Rev. JCP Sullivan, Parish Priest, as concelebrants. Interment will follow in St. Joseph Catholic Cemetery.
Patrick passed away at his home on Thursday, May 5, 2016. He was born in Newark, Ohio on March 22, 1962 to Conrad and Joyce (Brown) Blowers of Newark.
A 1981 graduate of Newark Catholic High School, Patrick worked for many years in sales and management in the food service industry. He was also an entrepreneur, owner and operator of various small businesses.
Patrick was an avid golfer and fan of Ohio State football. However, his lifelong passion was always his family; most especially his son, Corey and grandson, Cole. Actively involved in so many aspects of their life, he lived for their every joy, accomplishments, hopes and dreams. Patrick always lived life on the edge, had a keen sense of humor, and always had a smile on his face.
In addition to his parents, Patrick is survived by his son, Corey John (Brie) Blowers; his grandson, Cole Blaze Blowers; his siblings, Michael D. (Martha) Blowers, Nanette T. Friend, C. Christopher Blowers, Amy Lynne Dozier, and Matthew R. (Jennifer) Blowers; his aunt, Beverly J. Kelley; special family friends, Kristen (McCluskey) Nigg, John "Buddy" (Carol Sue) McCluskey; many nieces, nephews and cousins.
Patrick was preceded in death by his sister, Laura Beth; his brother Daniel T.; his grandparents, Roland and Kathleen (Penick) Brown, and Roy and Sarah (Pierce) Blowers; and very special friend and companion, Mary LeFevre.
Friends and family may call at the REED-EGAN FUNERAL HOME, 141 Green Wave Drive, Newark, 4-7 P.M., Tuesday, May 10, 2016 where a Vigil Service will be held at 6:30 P.M.

We are so very sad for your family. We have lost a great friend and a fine man. We have lost our favorite golfing pal. We have spent numerous hours on the golf course. Patrick always talked about his family, he was absolutely elated he was a grandfather, he said spoiling was aloud! Cole was his new direction in life. The minute you saw Patrick you had to smile, he was just that way. Of all our conversations on the golf course, he was truly all about family. There are so many stories of laughter. Patrick idolized Bobby Jones and perfected that golf swing, it was a pleasure to watch him. Sometimes we would mess up our golf game and the colorful language began and made us laugh even more! Our friend will be truly missed.
Mr. And Mrs. Conrad Blowers we pray God grants you strength for your loss.
