Stephen Carl Bowen

Bowen, Stephen Carl aged 78, passed away peacefully at home on June 30th, 2023, surrounded by family and loved ones. A graduate of Blake High School's class of '63, he earned a degree in Economics from the University of Washington, and was a pilot for Northwest/Delta from 1966 to 2005. Steve's passion was flying, both as a pilot and as a passenger, and together with his wife Ellen, he experienced the world. A private service will be held to scatter his ashes along the coast of his beloved Maui. Those wishing to extend Steve's legacy may make a donation in his name to Groves Academy at groveslearning.org/support/donate/ or to the Pacific Whale Foundation at pacificwhale.org.
