Bowers, 94, of Chelan and formerly of Pateros, Brewster and Wenatchee, died Wednesday, October 18, 2006, at Lake Chelan Community Hospital. He was born August 7, 1912, at Vancouver, B.C., the son of Joseph and Anna (Crapo) Schaaf. The family later changed their name to Bowers. George was raised in the Bridgeport area where the family homesteaded. He graduated from Bridgeport High School. He was employed in various orchards until he enlisted in the U.S. Army. He served from 1941, during WWII, seeing action at Wheeler Field when Pearl Harbor was being bombed. He also served on other islands in the Pacific. While still in the military, he was married to Elsie Cox on July 1, 1945, at Santa Rosa, CA near where he was stationed. When he returned home a few weeks later, the newlyweds lived in Mansfield where he was employed with the Highway Department. George enjoyed playing baseball on a team of brothers and friends. He earned the nickname "Rabbit", but he always kept everyone guessing why. They moved to Pateros in 1946, and George began employment with the WA State Dept. of Agriculture as a Commodities Inspector. They made another move to Brewster in 1956, to be closer to his work. The family joined the Community Log Church. After working for thirty years, he retired in 1977. Working in the cold warehouses wasn't his favorite thing to do, so upon retirement, he enjoyed going to Arizona for the winters where they would sneak to a few Chicago Cubs games. George and Elsie moved to Wenatchee in 1978, and enjoyed visiting the mall to see their friends from up and down the Valley. While in Wenatchee, they joined the First United Methodist Church. In July of 2005, George and Elsie moved to Chelan and resided at Starr Retirement Home. George was an unassuming, friendly person. He loved sports and could often be found watching a Mariner game. He attended games of the local high schools where theylived, nephew's games, followed by grandchildren's events. He enjoyed golfing, fishing and often spent many hours alone in the Methow Valley along the river. George was a devoted son, husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. He lived a full rich life, but it was very hard to get him to talk about it. Survivors include his wife, Elsie, of the home; daughter, Jama England (Doug) of Manson; grandchildren, Britt Hawkins (Troy) of Manson; Jared England (Emi) of Columbus, OH, Nathan England (Sara) of Columbus, OH, Megan Schoenwald (Travis) of Manson, and Miguel Bustos of Manson; and twelve great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents; five brothers; and two sisters. He was the last of his family. Services will be conducted Friday, October 27, 2006, at 10:00 a.m. at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Chelan. Interment will follow at Fraternal Cemetery. Visitation will be Thursday, October 26, 2006, 1:00 - 8:00 p.m. Services are under the direction of Precht Rose Chapel, Chelan.
