Sharon Kay Bowden

Sharon Kay Bowden, age 80, of Lowell, passed away January 2, 2024. She was preceded in death by her parents, Roy and Nell Miller; sons, Fred and Scott Bowden; brothers, Ted, Gene, Joe, Les, and Bob; sisters, Eleanor, Wanda and Elaine. Sharon is survived by her children, Forrest (Lisa) Bowden, and Shana Barclay; grandchildren, Brian, Zachary, Ciera, Jason, and Becca; great-granddaughter Remmi; sisters-in-law, Carla and Judy Miller; and so many nieces and nephews that she loved dearly. Sharon dedicated her life to caring for others, first running a home for the elderly and later contributing her warmth and kindness at a nursing home. She was a voracious reader and deeply spiritual. In her younger years, Sharon’s love for country music led her to join in singing with her brother’s band in the 60s, creating cherished memories. Fondly known as the “mom” to all 36 of her extended family, Sharon’s nurturing spirit and boundless love will be dearly missed. A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
