George “Scotty” Cadger Bowen was born in Aberdeen Scotland and came to Canada as a 9 month old baby. He was the fifth of seven sons for John and Jane Bowen. Brother of James (d), Gordon, Billy (d), Edmund, Jerry (d) and Jack.
Scotty met the love of his life, Merle, 57 years ago and they were married for 55 years. He was proud to be the father of his four girls Debra (Ron), Donna (Greg), Diane (Bob) and Darlene. He enjoyed being a grandfather to his 9 grandchildren; Connie, Samantha, Andrew, Kiegan, Christopher, Kaylei, Tyler, Alyssa and Amy-Lynn.
He also had 9 great grandchildren; Jalen, Aisha, Aliya, Noah, Nicole, Christian, Isabella, Dawson, Zachary plus 2 more on the way. Most of them arrived after he became ill but he would of loved being a kid with them too.
Scotty was a fun-loving family man with a quirky sense of humour. He was always laughing and trying to make others smile.
Scotty will be missed by all who knew him.
