BOWMAN, Marion Ruth James 75, St. Petersburg Native, passed away on September 19, 2021. She was the wife of 52 years to James Joseph Bowman Jr. and mother of Jim and Elizabeth Bowman III, Arthur Bowman (deceased), Rebecca and Tom Stock, and Laura and Jordan Pamer. Grammy of Sharlene, Kyle, Alec, Stephanie, Rachel, Makenna, Tallulah, Katie and Darby. Great Grammy to Addy, Gabby, Josiah, Elijah, Levi and Zion. Marion was the most amazing wife, mom, grammy, friend, sister, aunt and neighbor you could ever ask to have in your life. She never met a cookie, cat or human she did not like. She loved Jesus, life, family, laughing at people when they tripped, dancing, music, falling up stairs, laughing at herself, spending time with the Sisterhood of the Brown Haired Girls and making everyone's hearts a little easier. She was a warm blanket and so many felt her shelter and kindness. We can not count the number of hearts that are broken by her passing but we can say that those hearts are forever altered by her love. We will miss you forever and love you even longer. In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to Friends of Strays of St. Petersburg in her honor.
