William Vallmer Bowers, 85, of Lewisburg entered into rest on Tuesday, June 23, 2020 at home.
He was born September 15, 1934 in Weigh Scales(Shamokin) a son of the late William V. and Carrie (Rothka) Bowers. On May 18, 1973 in West Milton, he married the former Mary Jane Miller, who survives.

He was a Phillies, NASCAR and Penn State fan, NRA member and enjoyed fly fishing, boating, camping and big game hunting and was successful in 2002 to harvest a Pennsylvania Elk. He took a lot of pride in the restoration of his 1977 International Scout pickup truck.
