Tom Bowlin

April 7, 1953 - February 22, 2019 Tom Bowlin, 66, of Snohomish, WA died February 22, 2019 after a 19-year battle with a rare autoimmune disease. Tom was born April 7, 1953 in Pasadena, CA. Tom is survived by his children, Erica, Sommer, Ian, Joel (JT); and his three grandchildren. Tom was a Pacific Northwest native most of his life. Upon graduating from Lake Stevens High School in 1971, he joined the Army. His love of all things culinary began while he served his country. Upon the end of his tour in the Army, Tom began his culinary career as a civilian, a career that carried him through his life until his retirement in 2016. If Tom wasn't cooking, he was playing, watching, coaching, and then eventually umpiring baseball. His passion for the game led him to a 20-year career USSSA Umpire and USSSA Hall of Fame Inductee. For most, however, Tom is remembered especially for his humor, generosity, and unconditional love. He is deeply missed. The family invites those who would like to honor his life to join in tribute on April 27, 2019 at 11:00 a.m. at Westminster Presbyterian Church, located at 2531 Hoyt Ave, Everett, WA 98201. Following the funeral, family and friends are invited to Kasch Park for a celebration of life.
