                        HONORING TIMOTHY BOWMAN

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. LUKE MESSER

                               of indiana

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, March 19, 2013

  Mr. MESSER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the memory of a young 
constituent, Timothy Curtis Bowman of Osgood, Indiana.
  Curtis attended South Ripley High School and actively participated in 
the county FFA. He won numerous forestry awards at the state level, 
enjoyed deer hunting, and worked with his father in their tree trimming 
business.
  We mourn a life that ended too soon and pray for understanding and 
comfort for family members and those in our community who knew and 
loved Curtis. While in times of turmoil we struggle to understand the 
unexplainable, may we find peace and joy in our religious faith and the 
memories of time shared with those we love.
  Curtis will be forever remembered as a friend of his community. I ask 
the citizens of the 6th Congressional District to join me in keeping 
his parents, Tim and Pat Pennington Bowman, siblings, Keith, Michael, 
Tiffany, and Krista, and the entire extended Bowman family in our 
thoughts and prayers.

                          ____________________
