Mrs. Bowles was my supervisor when I first starting working at the age of 19. I am now 57 and remember her with great fondness. She was a wonderful mentor and a fine lady. I still use her Christmas tree candy dishes she made for me many years ago. She will always be remembered with appreciation for her the lessons in life she taught me. My deepest sympathy to her friends and family.
