Walter Bowles Obituary

Walter L. Bowles, age 61, passed away on February 10, 2026, in Charlottesville, Virginia. Born on June 27, 1964, he lived a life that touched those around him in ways perhaps unspoken.

Though there is no known prior work history to detail, Walter's presence was felt by those who knew him. His interests remain private, as does much of his personal journey. A quiet and reserved man, Walter leaves behind memories cherished by those fortunate enough to have shared in his company.

He is preceded in death by his parents. In respect of his wishes, no services are scheduled to take place at this time.

Funeral arrangements are in the care of Altmeyer Funeral Home and Cremation, Southside Chapel, located at 5033 Rouse Drive, Virginia Beach, Virginia 23462.
