William Bowles Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Cook & Son-Pallay Funeral Home - Columbus on Jan. 7, 2025.
WILLIAM DELANEY BOWLES, was born in Columbus, Ohio on Tuesday, August 7, 1962 to the parents of William Delaney Bowles Sr. and Joyce Ann Bowles.
He was preceded in death by his Father: William Delaney Bowles Sr., and Mother: Joyce Ann Bowles; Son: Terrance Laquan Bowles Dickerson; Sister: Janet Lethaniel Bowles
Survived by Wife: Mary Bowles; Sisters: Venlizca Velencia Kay Bowles (Terrell); Coretha Ann Bowles; Brothers: Michael Ray Bowles (Beverly); Charles Edward Bowles; Sons: Kevin Dickerson; Michael Bowles; William Delaney Bowles Dickerson, Jr.; Tyshawn Bowles Dickerson; Bill Bowles Dickerson; Denzell Dickerson, Clarence Calhoun II, and Clarence Calhoun III; Daughters: Shanta (Shannon) Carolina; Sequoia Bowles Dickerson; Shada (Williard) Bowles Dickerson and host of grandchildren, great-grandchildren, aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
William (Son, Brother, Father, Grandfather and Great-grandfather) was fearless and shared his love to the depths with the ones he loved. He was gifted. He was a builder, auto mechanic and cook. He could fix anything. You name it. Whenever he put his mind on something to do, he did it and did it well. He was very resourceful. He could take a little of something and make it feel like a lot. He was the kind of person you wanted to be on your side in a difficult situation (pinch) or where you need a quick solution of making do with what you have available.
This world will not be the same without him. He will be forever loved in our hearts and minds. And, truly missed. We will always love you.
When the sun rises tomorrow and I answer not my name, please don't cry rejoice with me, because the angels came, I can now rest in peace, as I never could before. I answered the gentle knock of the angels at my door, so please don't' mourn for me, as new wings I now claim. I can take flight to heaven, because the angels have came.
".For His anger is but for a moment. His favor is for a lifetime; Weeping my last for the night. But a shout of joy comes in the morning." Palms 30:5
