Excerpt from Normalogue, 1912: A Record of the Class of 1912
While Mr. Bowen's stay among us was short, in that brief time we were able to learn of his true manhood, his kindly and sympathetic nature, his sweetness of disposition, gentleness of manner and fine courtesy to all his associates.
Mr. Bowen was a leading man in our school not only in a professional way, but socially as well. He was the true type of a gentleman, courtly and perfect in bearing with an attractive personality which drew all to love and respect him.
On the day of his death our school exercises were suspended and everywhere little groups of students were collected, grief stricken beyond measure of belief. A cloud of gloom, dark and impenetrable, had settled over every one of us.
The suddenness of our bereavement and the circumstances attending it aroused the sympathy and regret not only of those who knew him best, but of all who learned the sad facts of the case. He died a martyr to his profession, death coming as a result of-his devotion to duty.
No matter how much we may philosophize and no matter how much comfort we may find in the belief of immortality, nevertheless we are stunned and grieved when one whom we loved so well is taken from us. Time, God's healing gift, alone can help us over the great gulf of sorrow.
