Harold was preceded in death by both his parents, Nellie and Harley Bowman, his wife Mary (Perkins) Bowman, his daughter Rebecca Bowman and his son, Robert Bowman. He is survived by his brother Louie Bowman, grandchildren Meghan Steward (Nicholas Steward) and Adam Bowman (Emily Bowman) as well as his great grandchildren, Addison Bowman, Crew Bowman, Aiden Steward and Nora Steward.
Harold was born on July 18th, 1928 to a beautiful family in Swanton, Ohio. He always loved telling amazing stories of his early years to all of us and reliving all the wonderful memories. Harold served his country in the Army from 1946 - 1948 overseas. When he came home from the service, he married his high school sweetheart Mary and started a family. He became an Electrician who helped build many homes in Ohio over the years. In the 90s, after years of hard work, Harold and Mary took to Sun City West, AZ to retire in the Valley and enjoy family time with his son Robert and his grandkids Meghan and Adam.
Harold enjoyed traveling all over the US and Arizona and he loved taking photos of all the things he saw. Harold was so talented in so many ways. If he wasn’t photographing beautiful landscape or family, he continued his passion to build all kinds of things for his home.
Harold lived a wonderful full life and he will be missed greatly by all he has preceded. His family is comforted in knowing that he is now united with his parents, wife and children in heaven.
Graveside service with Military Honors will be be Sunday, November 20th at 11AM.
Harold will be laid to rest in Sunland Cemetery Garden of Valor, 15826 N Del Webb Blvd, Sun City, AZ.
