While I didn't know Jean, I recall the many times Burt mentioned his lovely wife and loving family. I worked at Eaton's for Burt many, many years ago. I also met Geoff when I moved into the same apartment building he lived in and when he learned I worked for his Dad, we had too call him right away! Burt still remembered me! I can imagine him still joking and teasing with his lovely family as he did the ladies working for him in cosmetics at Eaton's. To Burt, Geoff and the rest of your family, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Deborah Bensky - Posted by: Deborah Bensky (Friend of Burt and Geoff) on: Oct 03, 2016

My heart sunk when I heard the news of Mrs Bowmans passing. I have so many wonderful memories of spending time at the Bowman house. I was always welcome and she was like my second Mom. I still remember she made the best homemade pizza and was always happy and smiling. Nancy, Geoff, Donna and Lee, sending you and your families big hugs - Posted by: Carla Hocken (Friend) on: Oct 01, 2016
