Beloved wife of Oran A. Sowell for more than 30yrs who passed away in 1985. Both of them came to know the Lord early in their relationship together. They were changed in that moment, throughout their life together, now, and forever by the simple recognition that Jesus, the lamb of God, came & died to clear away any obstacles between themselves & God, nothing more, nothing less. That Jesus is the way, the truth, & the life. The savior of the world. That witness, testimony, & faith was manifest to and permeated the lives of their children, grandchildren, and continues to do so in their great grandchildren, and others as well. She is survived by sister Ruby Crenshaw, daughter Geneva Ford, Husband Erin Ford, daughter Diana Selby, Husband Mike Selby, daughter Donna Welborn, Husband Ron Welborn, son Charlie Sowell, Wife Emmy Sowell, son Gary Sowell and numerous grand children, great grand children, nieces & nephews. Mom & Dad took great pleasure in raising their family in Pasadena. Thank you to all those who played a part in their lives there.
