Virgil Eugene Bowen

It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to and with supreme joy that we celebrate the life of Virgil Eugene Bowen, affectionately known as "Manny," who left us early Saturday morning, Dec. 31, after a prolonged illness.

We will remember Virgil for his happy nature and quick wit, his undying love of the outdoors, and his childlike excitement of all living things. Everyone who knew Manny will treasure his unwavering ability to maintain friendships whether it be by stopping by for a visit or a short , personal phone call.

Our memories of his countless stories will always be cherished, and his unwavering and unconditional love for his wife Priscilla, his children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and many other personal friends and acquaintances will never be forgotten.

Virgil is survived by his wife of 42 years, Priscilla, his sons Brandon and Roger, daughter Kari, eight grandchildren, four great-grandchildren, brother Herbert and wife Cletys, brother Lee, sister Lois and husband Gerald, and many nieces and nephews.

Services will be held Sunday, Jan. 8, at 2 p.m. at Moran United Methodist Church at 3600 E. 65th Ave.in Spokane. Donations can be made in Virgil's name to the church and to Hospice of Spokane.
