Joseph L. Bowman, 78 of Lebanon Junction, returned to his heavenly father on Saturday, December 17, 2022, peacefully at his home.
Joseph was a Baptist by faith and had been a member of First Baptist Church of Lebanon Junction. He was a wonderful husband and father, and the best papaw. He loved life, hunting, fishing and just being outdoors. He enjoyed spending time with his family and was always looking forward to planning the next family meal. He was such a kind man, that would give you the shirt off his back. He was loved by and will be missed by all who knew him.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Arnold and Rissa Bowman; his siblings, Ray Bowman, Evy Russell, Betty Cox Sutton, Ester Hutchinson, Dorothy Bowman, and Louise Turner.
