Ive known uncle george since the day I turned four I'm 15 now and didnt know him as long as some others but I do know that he was a powerful man of God and we should not weep over his passing but celebrate for he has gone to a place that we on earth can only dream about.

Rev. George Fowler was truly a mighty man of God. An inspiration and an example to us all. The legacy of his life, and his love for the work of the Lord, will live on for generations to come. He will be greatly missed, and greatly remembered.
May the peace of God comfort his family and friends in the coming days. And may each of us hold fast to the promises of God, that he so adamantly preached, with all hope of obtaining a crown of life, that we may one day see him again.

Rev. Dr. George W. Fowler Sr. was a mentor and coach to me as I began in ministry many years ago. We traveled to Israel together and ministered on radio together. Dr. Fowler has finished lifes race...., kept the faith...., and now enjoys "REST" in the presence of the LORD. I'm sure he has heard: WELL DONE! WELL DONE!!! To the family...., We love you and our prayers are with you.
