Larry Mowery Obituary
Larry Arthur Mowery, age 75 of Old Fields, WV, passed away Wednesday afternoon, October 16, 2024 at the Winchester Medical Center in Winchester, VA. Born on October 2, 1949 in Moorefield, WV, he was the son of the late Arthur Lee “Buck” Mowery and Ruth Ella Bowman Mowery.
Larry enjoyed fishing, bike rides and just hanging out with friends and family. Some would say he was a workaholic, never turning anyone down who needed a helping hand. He was a loving husband, father, brother and friend. He was the perfect drinking buddy to most of his friends. As an equipment operator, he worked for Apac, Virginia Paving and Fauquier Paving for Donnie Weaver until his retirement. He was a U.S. Army veteran who was always there when a need arose for the military.
Surviving is his wife, Eleanor Dale Riggleman Mowery; two sons, Josh Mowery & Jason (Jenn) Mowery; his stepchildren, Wade Vance, John Vance & Patty Martin; siblings, Gary (Tammy) Mowery, Terry (Tammy) Mowery, Roxie Fitzwater, Carolyn Jean (Billy) Tarman, Peggy Rohrbaugh, Debbie (Louie) Myers & Becky Reed; grandchildren, Kyleigh Mowery, Kara Mowery, Kelsey Mowery, Brix Mowery & Quinn Mowery and numerous nieces and nephews.
Funeral Services will be conducted 11:00 AM Tuesday, October 22, 2024, at the Fraley Funeral Home Chapel, 107 Washington Street with Pastor Russell Webster officiant. Interment will follow with Military Graveside Rites accorded by the U.S. Army and the Moorefield Veteran Honor Guard in the Olivet Cemetery. The family will receive friends from 5 – 7 PM Monday at the funeral home.
Larry's spirit of kindness and compassion will live on through the stories and memories shared by those who were fortunate enough to know him.
