He was 98. He was born Feb. 2, 1910, to Jackson Alexander (Al) and Maude Tweedy Bowles on Tahoe Ridge near Kooskia. His father Al died when Jack was age 7 and his mother later married John Godwin. Jack went to school on Tahoe Ridge. He worked various farming jobs in the area before working for the U.S. Forest Service as a packer in the Selway area. Jack married Hazel McHone Dec. 18, 1930, at the Bowles/Godwin family home on Tahoe Ridge. They had three children, daughter Barbara and two sons, Ray and Allen. Jack and Hazel lived the majority of their 68 years of marriage in and around the Kooskia-Clearwater Valley area. Jack worked in the sawmill and timber industry until the early 1950s when he and Hazel purchased Reeds Grocery in Stites. He spent the next 10 years operating or working in grocery and meat market businesses in Stites, Clarkston, Dayton and Asotin. Jack and Hazel moved back to Stites in the 1960s and Jack returned to the sawmill and the timber industry for a time until they moved back to the Tahoe Ridge area, where they farmed for several years. In the 1970s, they sold the farm and once again moved back to Kooskia and Jack worked in the sawmill industry until retirement. After retirement, Jack built and ran a mobile home park in Kooskia. In the early 1990s Jack and Hazel sold the mobile home park and moved to Burkhart Homes Retirement Center in Kamiah. Kamiah is only about eight miles from Kooskia but to Jack it just wasn't Kooskia, so after a few months they bought a new mobile home and moved it into the mobile home park Jack had built in Kooskia. They lived there until 1996, when age and health issues required a move to Moscow, so Jack and Hazel could be near family. Jack's many interests included playing cards, fishing, gardening, and spending time with his family and friends. He also enjoyed attending senior citizen functions in Kooskia for many years. He is survived by his daughter and son-in-law, Barbara and Reed Duncan of Hermiston, Ore.; his son and daughter-in-law, Allen and Donna Bowles of Moscow; six grandchildren; 12 great-grandchildren; one great-great-grandchild; a brother, Leo Godwin of Kamiah; a sister, Betty Burton of Lewiston; many nieces, nephews and extended family. Jack's wife, Hazel; his son, Ray; his brothers, Carl and Clyde Bowles, and Lewis Godwin; his sisters, Ella Bowles Hemphill Tibbits, Jennie Bowles McHone, Ellen Bowles and Elva Bowles McHone; his stepbrother, Jack Godwin; and his stepsisters, Marion Godwin Swain and Bea Godwin Tweedy, preceded him in death. There will be no funeral services. A graveside service will take place at 1 p.m. Saturday at the Tahoe Mountain Rest Cemetery near Kooskia. At 2:30 p.m. there will be a lunch and reception at the IOOF Hall in Kooskia. Short's Funeral Chapel in Moscow and Trenary Funeral Home in Kooskia are in charge of arrangements. Memorials may be made to Good Samaritan Nursing Home, 640 N. Eisenhower, Moscow, ID 83843; or to Whitman Home Health and Hospice, 1200 W. Fairview, Colfax, WA 99111.
