Enid Bowers


Today, at about 2.15pm our dear sister, Enid Bowers, went to be with her Lord.  It was most unexpected.

Yesterday, she went to see the doctor with what appeared to be bad flu symptoms, and was sent home with the usual flu medication.  But this morning she had the shakes, was running a temperature and was strangely lethargic; so her husband Harold phoned their daughter, Wendy, who is a nurse.  Wendy rushed over and found her mom very short of breath, and looking very ill.  Within a very short time, Enid simply fell back on the bed, and had passed away.  Wendy did CPR for about 15 minutes, but was unable to resuscitate her mom.

Enid was one of those people who was very good at "background work."  She cleaned the church each week; grew flowers and arranged them for the Sunday services at Head O'Wain; prepared the communion table each month.

Our heartfelt prayers go out to her husband, Harold, and the rest of her grieving children, grandchildren, and brothers and sisters.
