Help Honor the Life and Legacy of Stephen Dowell

On July 9, 2025, our beloved father, Stephen Dowell, passed away peacefully at the age of 79. He was a devoted husband, loving father and grandfather, proud veteran, and a man of unwavering faith who dedicated much of his life to serving others.

Stephen was a long-standing member of St. Martin of Tours Parish, where he served faithfully for decades as an usher and lector. He also volunteered regularly with the SHARE Food Pantry, always offering his time and compassion to those in need.

As we prepare to lay him to rest, our family is facing the financial challenges that come with funeral expenses and final arrangements. We’ve created this GoFundMe to help offset those costs and, just as importantly, to support the church that meant so much to him throughout his life.

Your donation will go toward:

Funeral and memorial service expenses

Burial and associated costs

A contribution in Stephen’s name to St. Martin of Tours Church

Any amount is deeply appreciated. If you are unable to give, please consider sharing this page or keeping our family in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you for helping us honor Stephen’s life with the dignity, faith, and love he so greatly deserved.

With heartfelt gratitude,

The Dowell Family
