A wonderful friend has left our life but his SMILE , LAUGH and BOOMING VOICE will always be there when we remember Dow :) Those of us who knew Dow as a City High student ,neighbor or a friend we were the LUCKY ONES as Dow was a one of a kind <3 r>

Dow was such a nice, friendly, smart and kind person. Pete and I so enjoyed being with him and Barb. We will miss him. And Pete will miss his shooting buddy. Thoughts and prayers to Barb, Dan, Andy and all the rest of Dow's wonderful family.

Dearest Barb and Andy and Danny, Jane and Maureen and I are so terribly sad to learn of Dow's passing. You three and Dow are family to us; our memories are deep and joyful and many. Please accept our sympathy and love. You are in our hearts always.

I definitely remember Uncle Dow's good humor ...

Uncle Dow offered me recommendations with regard to the first rifle that I ever bought - and I still have it.

Coincidentally, since then, I have also taken up black powder - belonging to the McKinley Mountainmen Muzzle Loading Rifle club, which meets in the basement of the VFW in Eagle River, Alaska.

I remember Aunt Barb and Uncle Dow teaching me how to dance in their living room - in front of the boys - for the upcoming Junior-Senior Prom at City High (1967). What a hoot! Actually really didn't dance that much that night, but I haven't forgotten how to dance the waltz and the 2-step (I belong to the "Dancing Bears" dance club, that holds a 3-day dance camp every Memorial Day weekend at a beautiful bible camp with a lake. just outside of Wasilla, Alaska)!

My prayers are with the family. I was a classmate of Dow's and remember him as being friendly to everyone.

So sorry to hear of Uncle Dow's passing. Heartfelt condolences to the family. Loved hearing Dow's laugh and seeing his smile. Always positive and kind to us.

Dow and I had a lot of fun in high school. Will miss him.

Glad I got to see him at the last class pizza party.

My condolences to friends and family.

My sister and I have such fond memories of Dow (and Barb, Dan, and Andy) throughout our childhood. Our family was lucky to have been blessed with Dow's supportive, patriotic, humorous, and kind heart. Blessings and prayers to all of Dow's family as they grieve this loss.

Seeing Dow's beautiful photo has lifted my spirits this morning, to me it's the true Dow, smiling and ready for adventure. I've added an Eagle to this posting as he was all about America and things made in America. HIs journey is not finished, it lives on in each of you and In we who knew him. May he rest in peace.
