She was a devoted wife and mother, one who always put the interests of her fam- ily first, who saw to it that her son was given the best she could provide, in loving care, spiritual nourishment, and material comforts.

She was a faithful member to her church, always pres- ent at every service unless
hindered from being there; and saw to it that her.
The memories we have of Sister Juanita H. Powell- Bowman will always be dear to our hearts. We should not mourn her passing, but should rejoice for our de- parted friend has gone, we know to a home more beauti- ful than any we have ever known.
She gave her all for Him and for the family He gave to her; and now she is added to His great and blessed family in the world beyond our vi- sion, which we call heaven.
We express concern and sympathy for her son left without a mother and beg him to turn his heart toward God who does all things well and who will be a mother to the motherless and will com- fort all who mourn.
