Read More	Charles Lewis Bowen residing near Maurice, Iowa, passed away at his home Wednesday morning, January 4, 1928, aged 69 years, 3 months and 24 days, after an illness of many weeks. He was born near Fond du lac, Wisconsin, August 10, 1858, where he lived until he came to Iowa in 1870, settling with his parents on the farm on which he resided until the time of his death. Mr. Bowen was married to Miss Minnie Cook in 1887. Three children were born to this union, Elmer, who died in infancy, Vera, the only daughter, a teacher in the public schools of Arizona, who has been at home the past few months with her parents on account of her father's ill health, and a son, Leslie, who is married and lives at Struble, Iowa. Mr. Bowen's illness dates back more than a year but to his friends and acquaintances it was not thought to be anything of a serious nature. Last May Mr. Bowen thought a summer of rest, travel and camping would be of benefit to him so he with his wife and daughter started on a western trip. The trip did not improve his health as it was hoped. July 4, at Eugene, Oregon, Mr. Bowen was taken seriously ill and brought to his home near Maurice. For a time he regained a little of his former strength but in spite of all that the best medical aid could give, he passed away. Mr. Bowen leaves to mourn his departure his wife, the two children, one brother, Asa Bowen, of Billings, Montana, who visited him last summer, several nieces and nephews and a host of friends and neighbors that learned to know and love this man of sterling character, nobleness of heart and kindliness of thought and action, whose generosity of word and deed went out to all with whom he came in contact, a kind and thoughtful friend and neighbor and a most excellent husband and father. At one o'clock, January 7, 1928, after short services at the home, the last rites were administered from St. John's church by Rev. Tyler, of Ticonic, a former pastor of Mr. Bowen, and interment was made in the cemetery at St. John's church where his father, mother and other close relatives found their last resting place. Those present at the funeral services besides the immediate family, were: Mr. and Mrs. L. B. Bowen, of Sioux City; L. C. Bowen and son, Clayton, of Yankton, S. D.; Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Britton, of Seney; Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Brink, of West Union, Iowa; Mrs. Jay Peebles and Mrs. Chas. Ladenberger, of Le Mars; Mr. and Mrs. Ward Griffin, of Merrill, and a host of sorrowing friends and neighbors who extend sympathy to the bereaved.
