    Memorial Card- In Memory Joseph E. Bowers born December 1, 1878 Erie, PA. Passed away July 2 1957 Portland, Oregon. Services- The Gable Funeral Home, sunrise Chapel, 225 NE. 80th Ave., Portland, Oregon. July 5, 1957 3:00 pm. Reverend Charles R. Mcdonald, Mt. Tabor Methodist Church, Officiating. Mrs. H.A. Hunderup, Organist. Casket Bearers: Alva Cowan, Dick Hughes, Earl Worthington, Bill Lorenz, Pete Emmet, Louis Worthington. Interment, Lincoln Memorial Park. The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of rightiousness for His name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me. thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. The Twenty-third Psalm ***************** Memorial Card is wrong on his birth date apparently, for in his baptismal certificate it states he was born in Clearfield, Pa. not Erie, and it also states he was born 21st of Sep 1878, not in Dec.
