Nathaniel "Nate" Bowlin

Nathaniel was born to Brad and Debbie Bowlin on January 13, 1982 in Riverside, California. He was the younger of 2 siblings by almost 6½ years. He is survived by his parents and sister, Erica Bowlin. He is preceded in death by his Great Grandparents Ernest and Bertie Butler, Lester and Blanche Miller, Grandparents Patrick and Christine Vaughn, and Aunt Sheila Mendoza.

Nathaniel had a very active life that he loved which included his church activities and friends, family, American Civil War Living History Reenacting, Viking Era Living History Reenacting, upgrading his Dodge Magnum to haul trailers for reenacting, upgrading trailers to haul stuff for reenacting, traveling to reenactments, restoring his Chevy Suburban, and dreamed of restoring an Air Stream travel trailer to travel. He enjoyed his work of being on the shipping trailer clean-out crew at the Walgreens Distribution Center in Moreno Valley, California.

Nathaniel never met a stranger and was liked by almost everyone he met. Nate cared deeply for his family and friends. He loved helping people and would often stop by the side of the road to help someone who was stranded. He truly had a precious heart and was a shining light that will be sorely missed.
