George Franklin “Buster” Bowers went to be with his Lord and Savior, Sunday, September 22, 2019. Buster was born on January 26, 1975 in Pasadena, Texas. Buster was a 38-year resident of Montgomery County, Texas. He attended Conroe High School and went on to attend the Air Force Academy. He later graduated from Sam Houston State University with a Bachelors Degree in Restaurant Management. Buster met and married Brandy Tyler Bowers and built a beautiful life together for over 15 years.
Buster was a pillar in the community and served throughout various associations and organizations. He was proud to serve Veterans and First Responders in any way he could. His sense of humor and servant’s heart was treasured by all who came into contact with him. He was a member of St. Mary’s/St. Joseph’s Catholic Church. When Buster’s smiling face wasn’t seen at Kuntry Katfish, he could be found taking his children to their activities, volunteering, fishing and participating in his fantasy football league. He enjoyed time with those near and dear to him. His love for his family was unwavering. The overwhelming loss is felt throughout the community.
