Dr. Andrew Fowler was truly "Mr. Washington Baptist Seminary". No one could handle the king's English like him! To get it right, you had to cross every 't' and dot every 'i'. Nothing else would do.

I am delighted to have had the pleasure of attending WBS and encountering such a giant both in stature and wisdom.

The WBS Class of 1982 will forever cherish his memory and wisdom, as well as chuckle at the antics and the common sense lessons he shared with us.

Rev. Fowler was one of my teacher at the Washington baptist Sem. I enjoy his teachering. Rev. Fowler was a close friend to our family. Our Pastor Rev. William L. Turley of the Mt. Gilead Baptist church.Rev. Fowler also had my brother Reginald Felder at the school. Rev. Fowler will be miss because you could do nothing but love him. Rev.Lawrence M. Felder.

We offer our condolences to the wife and family of our beloved Reverend Doctor Andrew Fowler. He was a true visionary-a legend who worked to educate not only ministers, but all those around him. It's hard to imagine a school of higher learning without Doc! He was a wise, witty, generous man with a loving heart. Thank God for sharing him with us for a while.

On behalf of the Cutler family, our deepest sympathies to the Fowler family. Having been members of Capital View throughout most of the 1960's, 1970's and 1980's, at which time our family moved away, we were and have been richly blessed by Rev. Fowler's leadership and example for many years. He was truly a giant and will be sorely missed.

To the Family of Dr. Andrew Fowler, Fondly remembered and loved. I will never forget a poem that was written by one of his students in the class of 1985 intitled "Dr. Fowler's Cain". This poem described him in deed. He was a great man full of wisdom and knowledge.Our prayers are with you doing this time.

It is such a great honor to have met and been a student of Rev., Dr. Andrew Fowler, one of the greatest spiritual, moral and intellectual leaders of our time. The shadow of this titan will never dissipate from the backdrop of the stage where true African American Baptist of Slave Descent serve the True and Living GOD. We thank God for this Great Gospel Preacher who now resides in the arms of JESUS.

We offer our condolences to the family and assure you that our loss is indeed heaven's gain.

To the Fowler Family and the Capitol View Baptist Church Family: We have lost a giant of a man. Dr Fowler was the one we checked with before we ventured out into uncharted waters. The Ministers Conference, the school, the mission field organizations will not be the same without Dr. Fowler. He was the back bone of all these groups. He has earned his eternal rest. May the Lord bless you all.

Truly it was a blessing to have been brought up in the church under Dr. Fowler. My mother and her sisters came up under Dr. Fowler also. My Husband also was taught by the Great Dr. Fowler. We send our deepest sympathy to the family and remember that he is forever In Your Heart. When you speak of him speak not with tears for thoughts of him should not be sad. Let memories of the times you shared give you comfort for his life was rich because of you. And though for now you had to part, though to part he did not choose; he'll be with you along life's path,Forever In Your Heart.

Our Deepest Sympathy to the Family
