"My grandson is sleeping now. The Bible speaks of a time when all things will be new, when death Sickness and pain will be more because the former things will be no more Rev 21:,3-5. We await that time time when we will be with Michael again as we miss and love him. Mommae"
In loving memory of
Michael Leon Bowden-Fowler
December 16, 2003 - December 12, 2020
Michael Leon Bowden-Fowler was born in San Diego, California on December 16, 2003 to Lanae Fowler and Marcus Bowden. He was the youngest of five children.
Michael accepted Christ at a young age. He was kind, thoughtful, and loving. He was a blessing not just to his family, but to everyone he would meet. Michael was motivated, persistent, and always ready to live life to the fullest with those closest to him.
Michael began his education at Rolando Elementary School. He attended middle school at Horace Mann Middle and O'Farrell Charter School. He embarked on his secondary school journey by attending Monte Vista High School before moving to Lincoln High School. While in school Michael showed his athletic ability and passion for both basketball and football. He played on the football team at Monte Vista High School and played the forward position on the Lincoln High School basketball team. On the off season, he enjoyed playing basketball at Joan Kroc Center and Jackie Robinson YMCA.
Michael especially enjoyed spending time with his family. He loved being outdoors, going fishing, and going to all sorts of amusement parks with his dad and the rest of his family. One thing that is sure is that he loved and enjoyed the time he spent with family and friends.
On Saturday, December 12, 2020, Michael Leon Bowden-Fowler left time and entered eternity to see his Savior face to face. Although the occasion was sad, Michael received his reward with faith and prayer from his family and friends.
Left to cherish his memory are: his loving mother Lanae Fowler; father Marcus Bowden (Anna Foster), all of San Diego, CA; siblings: Angelique Davis, Marquell Bowden, Montel Bowden, and Chazney Bowden; grandmothers: Brenda Darden and Layla Fowler; his grandfathers; and a host of aunties, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, family, and friends.
