Dennis Harry Bowe April 20 1957- Jan 19 2025

From the bottom of our hearts, our son Allen (Sam) Bowe, our daughter Laura Southwick, our second son Rick Bowe, their families and I would like to thank all of you wonderful people who donated to the Go fund Me and directly to myself, wife Doreen Bowe.
All who helped, donated, built, cooked, ran, paid, and helped run the service or did anything else in Dennis’s honor, we cannot tell you how much we appreciate it and always will!! I’d love to name every single one of you, but it’d take one very long post, and I’m scared I’d miss someone, and I don’t want to offend a single person.
Thank you also to all who travelled to be there in the horrible cold month
Dennis was well known for his expert mechanical skills, as well as being a seasoned musician who could play literally anything. He welded until his heart didn't allow it. He was known also as the carburetor man as he could rebuild carbs like nothing with his big fingers or replace tiny springs in watches.
If he came across something he hadn't fixed before he would figure it out. He was loved by so many, but especially his family and he soaked up every minute.
Dennis went through a lot in his life! He had rheumatics fever at one year old that caused his heart to deteriorate. He ended up in total having two strokes, four heart attacks, two heart valve replacements, a pacemaker, severe COPD, and a hernia that was on going as it was too risky to operate on that was caused from all the surgeries he endured.
Through all of it he came through smiling and was a wonderful friend to everyone he met .
Thank you all again so much!
We love and respect you all so much and are grateful to have so many wonderful huge hearts in our lives. I’m sorry for all who loved and lost Dennis He was quite the guy and will never be forgotten.
We wish everyone the best of health and happiness. Life is way too short.
Rest in Peace Harry ♥️ Love you man!
