I am so sorry to hear of Lamar’s passing. I am out of town traveling and will not be able to attend the funeral. Please accept our heart felt condolences on behalf of my family and mother Annette.
Janet,
We are saddened to hear of Lamar’s passing and we appreciate that you called to let us know. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family while you go thru this loss. You can take solace knowing he is at peace, seeing the word clearly, pain free and comfortable with our Lord. Stay strong and if we can do anything feel free to let us know.

Janet, I was talking with Craig Finamore, who bought your lovely home here in South Carolina, and he gave me the news of Mr. Bowman’s passing. I am so sorry to hear of this in that it seems we just recently talked. I feel really blessed to have met you both – such kind and loving folks. Be comforted in this stressful time and know that he’s in God’s hands now and can see perfectly in that beautiful place where we all hope to go and see our loved ones again. Take care and God bless you! Reba
