GLADYS BOWMAN

GLADYS ELIZABETH BOWMAN (nee Shuh) passed away at Pioneer Lodge in Moose Jaw on April 13, 2003, at the age of 93 years. Gladys was born April 3, 1910 on a farm near Guernsey, Saskatchewan to Elizabeth and Benjamin Shuh. Gladys went to Normal School in Saskatoon and then taught school in the Lockwood area and at Cana, Saskatchewan.  She married Fred Bowman in 1932. Gladys was a warm, compassionate woman who served God and others with an uncomplaining heart.  She spent many years teaching Sunday school, VBS, and Bible study.  She always took time for her family and neighbours and was a wise listening ear.  She enjoyed quilting and knitting.  Gladys was predeceased by her husband Fred, her son Bob and her sister Florence Verbecke.  She is mourned by her children and their spouses: Rod (Juanita), Walter (Beatrice), Bob (Alma) and Ruth (Barry); her grandchildren, great-grandchildren and her sister Helen.  We have been blessed by her love and prayers.  We are sad to see her go, but look forward to the day we meet her again.  Funeral Services will be held at Sharon Mennonite Church, Guernsey, Saskatchewan on Thursday, April 17, 2003 at 2:00 p.m.  Pastor James Mullet will officiate.  Interment will take place in the Sharon Mennonite Church Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Gideons Bible Society would be appreciated by the family.  In living memory of Gladys, a tree will be planted in Wakamow Valley by W.J.Jones & Son Funeral Home.
