MICHAEL FOWKS

Sally and family, we wanted to let you know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.
Remembering the help when I refurbished Dicks office furniture with new leather upholstery back when we were newlyweds. (early 70s). Also the original sailing club down on Grand Lake. May your many happy memories bring you comfort.

Dear Sally and family. We were very sad to hear of Mike's passing. We were happy to have visited with you both last September at Misty's and Andy's in Redwood Valley. We remember the fun we all had celebrating with the whole family on your 50th anniversary cruise. We send our love and sympathy to everyone in the family. We will miss Mike.

Dearest Fowks family and clan- my deepest sympathies for Mike's passing. I have so many great memories of Mike as he was like my dad #2. He was a wry, smiling, witty, strong, stable as a rock, unflappable man. He was so patient and kind. He was always tinkering with something and had a beautiful curiosity. He was not only a jack of all trades of sorts - he was a master of many. He was also a great sailor. My dad told me the story of when they were sailing one day way out in the middle of the lake, a terrible storm was coming in, but Mike didn't blink twice. As the rain and wind descended upon them and the boat was on it's side, nearly flipping over and they were all hanging on for dear life (literally!), Mike held the helm like a true master and unflinchingly and confidently with almost a whistle on his lips, got them through the storm safely. What a great lesson of life that is to me. I know my mom and dad are greatly rejoicing in seeing their long time friend. I am praying for your entire family (and many prayers for Sally), and I hope that peace and comfort, joy and healing will come to all xo.

Dear Sally, Amy, and Family, I have great memories of this great Man. Thank you for letting me be a part of your lives; it is truly an honor. I wish you peace and my sincerest condolences. Love, Ronni Ward

I am grateful for the life of Mr. Fowks. Thanks to his service and to the service of others in our armed forces, my family and I have been able to lead our lives in freedom and peace.

Dear Sally,
It is with a real sadness that we learned of Mike's passing. I learned to sail on the "Sally J" with Mike and Melzacher. It was a treat especially when Mike would jump into the main sail. We have so many great memories of you and Mike at Grand Lake Sailing Club. Wish we could hug you and tell all the stories we have.
Mike and Celie Mayer xoxo

Dear Sally and Family, Our sincere sympathy in the passing of your dear husband and father. I just received the e-mail from Dody. I noticed Mike was an auditor for Montgomery Ward. I managed the Montgomery Ward Catalog Store here in Grinnell for 20 years. Sally, my sincere sympathy and prayers are with you at this time. Shirley (Wick) and Ken Conner.(former OHS 53 classmate)

Will miss you everyday! Love you forever, Popo.

Love always, Witney, Tim and Baby Leah Johnson ❤
