Service: 11 a.m. Saturday at Good Shepherd Episcopal Church, Dallas.
Memorials: In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to To Write Love on Her Arms, twloha.org.
He graduated from the University of Texas at Arlington with a degree in electrical engineering. Jeff found his true calling in life when he began teaching math and physics at Carter-Riverside High School in Fort Worth. Possessed of an active and curious mind, he threw himself into life with passion and abandon, whether it was learning to fly, running half-marathons or serving others. Inspiring teacher, loyal friend, loving father - he is gone too soon.
Survivors: Daughter, Elizabeth; former wife, Kathy; parents, Jerry and Jan; and brothers, Jay and John and their families.

I had the plasure of working with Jeff at CRHS when he first came to the campus. I will always remember his wry sense of humor and his desire to do what was best for his students. My sorrow is that I never got to know his family.

To Jeff's Family,
I was privileged to have worked with Jeff for the past few years in the Science Department at Carter-Riverside High School. I saw him at his best and that is how I will remember him. He was always in his room before most teachers, waiting for students to come in early for tutorials. I witnessed his patience as he lead his class through challenging material. Together, we sponsored the Robotics/Engineering Club and saw students having fun with Science...the way it is meant to be. He was an inspiration to me as the kind of teacher I would like to be. He was a wonderful friend. My condolences and sympathy to you.

A few weeks from now, (or a few years) I might know what to say, but for now, I am just sure that Jeff has touched the hearts and changed the lives of everyone who knew him. My prayers and sympathies to all who will miss his presence and the special way in which God's light was present in him.

Jeff was not perfect but he tried harder to do what was right more than any person I have known. That is why I loved him so much as a friend. I miss him dearly

Jeff and I served together at St Alban's and had a lot of fun serving the Lord. I know Jeff is now in His presence. Nevertheless, we will all miss Jeff but we all have such good memories of the times we shared with him.

Carter will miss Mr. Fowler. I believe he has taught every one of us something very important at one point of another and that will never be forgotten.

Fowler. He was such a strong man, always full of curiosity. He always shared his curiosity with us, his students. I've learned an abundance from this wonderful man. I feel the pain his family is going through, this void that had developed.
It hurts to know that he will not be there to teach me again next year. He was such a wonderful teacher. I miss him dearly.
You're beyond the moon and the stars. You're now with the butterflies.
Your Favorite Student.
