Stephanie Cowgill Obituary
BUCYRUS: Stephanie J. Cowgill, 38 of Bucyrus, died Wednesday, June 25, 2014 from injuries sustained in an automobile accident.
She was born March 28, 1976 in Lincoln, Nebraska the daughter of Michael E. Sr. and Patricia J. (Guisinger) Drew who both reside in Bucyrus. Stephanie was a 1994 Bucyrus High School graduate and married her high school sweetheart David E. Cowgill who survives.
She was a simple person with a happy-go-lucky attitude and she lived to care for her family. Steph was always involved with her children, whether it be a new video game or out riding the four wheeler, she loved every minute of it. She also made sure Dave got to work with a packed lunch and saw to it that a meal was prepared following a day of work. They enjoyed traveling to visit other family, camping and fishing and spending time at fairs and festivals. When there was down time, Stephanie loved reading romantic novels, watching movies; two of her favorites being Grease and Cry Baby or playing with her boxer dogs, who helped put a smile on her face.
In addition to her parents and husband, Stephanie is survived by her three prize possessions, Dave Cowgill, Jamin Cowgill and Katherine Cowgill, all living at home; four siblings, Mary (Larry) Gallant, Michael E. Jr. (April) Drew, Edgar (Janet) Drew and Karla (Frank) Witten all of Bucyrus; three special aunts, aunt Steph, aunt Betty and aunt Patty; along with numerous cousins. Also surviving are her father-in-law, Fred Cowgill, Sr.; close uncles, Rick and John Cowgill; along with other uncles; special cousin, John Cowgill; and other cousins; a brother-in-law, Fred Cowgill, Jr.; and a sister-in-law, Angela (Chazz) Staley and her children, Cody, Kaylie and Gabriel.
She is preceded in death by a nephew, Byron Wade and numerous uncles.
Her family will receive friends from 1-3 and 5-7 p.m. Sunday, June 29 at Wise Funeral Service, where her funeral service will be held at 1:00 p.m. Monday. Burial will follow in Whetstone Cemetery.
