Sharon L. Bowden (Brecken) age 82, of Caledonia, went home to be with Jesus on Wednesday, July 31, 2024.  Sharon was a wonderful loving wife and mother.  Sharon enjoyed reading, especially the Bible and giving back to the youth as far as teaching the word of God.  She was preceded in death by her daughter, Reba Bowden, sister, Arlene Anstett.  She will be deeply missed by her husband of 59 years, Bob; children, Terry (Mike) Sanford, Tracie (Todd) Sparks, Breck (Michelle) Sines, Rob (Tracy) Bowden, Ron (Angela) Bowden; 19 grandchildren; 18 great grandchildren; sisters, Donna Aldrich, Diana (Carl) Kangas; brothers-in-law, Douglas Bowden, Jimmy (Nancy) Bowden, and John Newton; along with many nieces and nephews; and a special pastor Bob/Butch (Kathy) Roush from Friendship County Chapel; as well as many friends from their church. A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, November 2, at 2:00 pm at Thornapple Valley Church, 20 State St., Middleville, MI 49333.  In lieu of flowers, contributions to your favorite charity in memory of Sharon would be appreciated.
