Charles Eugene “Charlie” Bowen, 72, of Maryville, MO, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, September 27, 2020, in North Kansas City, MO.

He lived a short time in Clarinda, and then to Ravenwood, MO. He graduated from Northeast Nodaway High School, class on 1966. He took Bible School classes in Norfolk, NE, and married many people in the area. He lived many years in Maryville.
Charlie was the manager at Tightline UV Lures, Maryville, MO. He had worked with his Dad at Bowen Body Shop, in Ravenwood. And he and Teresa had owned Looks Fitness Center in Maryville. He attended the Countryside Christian Church, Maryville.
