Agnes Mary Gower's Obituary
Agnes Mary Gower 4/11/1928-9/20/2015 Slipped into heaven peacefully surrounded by her loving family (sons: Brian and Bruce, her beloved daughter-in-law Sarah, and her cherished sister Joan Evans). Agnes was born in Seattle, Washington and moved to San Francisco and then to the San Mateo peninsula as a young child. She graduated from Mercy High School in Burlingame, CA in 1946. She also graduated from San Mateo City College. Agnes was an active participant in the San Mateo business community for over 60 years. She found many things to keep her busy (when she wasn’t busy helping to run the family business) including gardening, traveling, and cooking. She was an avid reader who could converse on any topic. She was preceded in death by her daughter Debrah, sons Dan and Dave and her beloved husband of 61 years Dan C. Gower Jr. She would have wanted to thank her caregivers, Viola, Lani, Laura, Sarah, and everyone else who made her last days as comfortable as possible. In lieu of flowers please donate to help the California fire victims.
