Kelly Bowler Obituary
Fitzgerald Bowler
DOVER - Kelly Jean Fitzgerald Bowler. "Not fragile like a flower, fragile like a bomb."
Born on March 12, 1973 Kelly Jean Fitzgerald Bowler was a force to be reckoned with. She was a bold spirit who loved her family whole heartedly, especially her daughter, Grace, Grace's father Chris, her father Dennis, mother Carol; sisters Deena and Nicole (Carl, David); nieces Maryn, Maggie, Sophie, Caroline; nephews Miles and Chase; Stepfather Charlie; Grandpa Dave; Aunt Diane and Uncle Mike; Aunt Cathy; Uncle Dick and Aunt Erva; Aunt Gail; Aunt Teresa, many cousins in Michigan and Delaware; her friend Mike.
Kelly graduated from Immaculata University with a degree in nursing. Her innate ability to understand and share the feelings of others endeared her to the elderly patients that she cared for throughout her career. She made an impact on so many people.
Kelly loved her Chihuahua, Bubba, the music of Madonna, Forensic Files, the color pink, Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue perfume, laughter, Coach purses, generosity, and sleep.
She hated throw-up, not having her hair and make-up done before leaving the house, and spineless people.
We will miss her more than words can say.
The funeral service will be private, but the family welcomes donations to the American Diabetes Association. Condolences may be shared via ambruso.com

I worked with Kelly at Chatham Acres for many years. She at times picked me up for work. She'll be greatly missed.
