Nancy was born June 19, 1930 in Jacksboro, Tx to Oscar Bernard Powell and Nannie Merle Bryant Powell. She was valedictorian of her class at Euless High School and went on to graduate from North Texas State College with a degree in English, which is probably why she was a master at crossword puzzles. After marrying Perry Bowen in 1949, she spent 47 years (this is not a typo) volunteering as financial secretary of Monica Park Christian Church in Garland, Tx. Nancy also worked at Oil Well Supply and volunteered many years at Memorial Hospital in Garland.
She is preceded in death by her sister Anna Katherine Powell Wilkinson and her 2 brothers Lewis James Powell and William Harrell Powell.
Nancy is survived by her 2 daughters, Nancy Katherine Graves and husband Richard of Azle, Tx and Jane Elisabeth Shoppa and husband James of Westlake, TX.; 5 grandchildren and 6 great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews.
We would like to say a special "thank you" to Nancy's friends and the staff at Eagle Crest Villa in Azle. Nancy was a loving wife, mother and friend and her memory will be cherished always.
