Sending sympathy and prayers to all the family. Thinking of you in your loss. Pat Norman
Worked with Bill when I was an apprentice lineman at Illinois Power just before he retired. He was always willing to share his line knowledge with the guys just starting in the lineman trade and kept an eye on you to keep you safe. I always love when I was assigned to work with him on the crew because you know it was going to be a fun day. When you screwed up, he would just shake his head, give that little chuckle, get you squared away and then we would move on and get the job done. He will be missed...
We were saddened to hear of Bills passing. Frank talks about hunting and camping and all the motorcross races that he attended with you all.
We used to see Bill and Nancy at Rural King or Walmart but hadn't seen them in a while. We had talk just last week about how long it had been since we had seen Bill and Nancy.
We are sending our deepest sympathy to the entire Bowman Family. We pray that... Our Heavenly Father Wraps His Loving Arms Around You All And Gives You His Peace. Stay strong.
Frank and Kandi Russell
