Mark Gregory Bowers, 64, of Wilkes County, NC, passed away on September 16, 2025. Born on July 10, 1961, in Wilkes County, he was the beloved son of Ivin and Barbara Bowers.
Mark is survived by his loving wife, Loretta (Lori) Denton-Bowers; his children, Daniel Harvey, Emily Harvey, Anthony Ayers, and Tommy Smith; and his cherished grandchildren, Harper and Lindsey Ayers. He is also survived by his sister, Lynn Wilbourne. Mark was preceded in death by his brother, Johnny Bowers.
Mark spent much of his life on the open road as a truck driver, a profession that perfectly matched his free spirited nature. He had a deep love for motorcycles and the sense of freedom they brought him. To his family and friends, Mark will be remembered for his strength, and the love he carried for those closest to him.
At this time, the family requests that any memorial contributions be sent to his wife, Loretta, as they honor and remember Mark's life.
