Mr. Ruben enjoyed a good long life. He had so many memories of a life well lived. He was one of those the Bible call especially strong. Ps. 90:10

Mrs. Bowen, Scotty and extended family. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I was fortunate to grow up around the Bowen family. Fond childhood memories remain of those wonderful times, none more so than today. Mr. Bowen was a fine gentleman, husband and father.
