She was predeceased by her parents and her son, George Bowman Jr., and brother-in-law, Michael Blake.

She leaves behind her daughter, Megan Jean Bowman of South Charleston; sons, Justin Bowman of Kill Devil Hills, NC, Aaron Bowman of Fort Lauderdale, FL; and her grandson, Jay (Booger Boo) Hendrickson of South Charleston. Also surviving are her siblings: Catherine Shriver (Ted), Libby Blake, Dennie Riffe, (Sandra Childress); nephews, Joshua Shriver (Nikki), Michael Blake II (Amanda); great nieces and nephews, Mathen Kelley, Jaycee Kelley, Maddox Ray, Dorothy-Jean Catherine Shriver, and Andy Blake.

A Celebration of Life will be held on March 15, 2025, from 2-4 p.m. at St. Andrew’s By-The-Sea Episcopal Church, Nags Head, NC.

Special thanks to her many friends, co-workers and the entire beach community.
