Mike Bowman Obituary, Death – On March 23, our beloved Manager Mike Bowman, who was also a good friend, passed away. It is with the deepest regret that we must inform you of this news because he was also a good friend. Mike was a very helpful member of our group and contributed significantly to our efforts. Although Mike has been a member of the James River Equipment Family since 2007, he has more than 25 years of experience operating John Deere tractors. Mike is a John Deere certified tractor driver. Since 2007, James River Equipment has served as Mike’s place of employment.

Mike’s present position at James River Equipment was that of Regional Manager, which required him to handle both the Wilkesboro and Statesville facilities of the company. These responsibilities were shared between Statesville and Wilkesboro. Mike was in charge of overseeing both of these locations in his previous role as location manager. Michael loved and truly cared for every single person he met throughout his life, regardless of whether they were his customers, his coworkers, or his employees. This included everyone he worked with. Visitation will be held at the Beulah Baptist Church on Sunday, March 26, 2023, from 1:00 to 3:30 pm, and the service will begin at 3:30 pm.

Both events will take place on the same day. On the same day as the wake, the funeral will take place. Both of these pursuits are scheduled to take place at the same time on the day that has been reserved for them. Please be assured that you are in each of our thoughts and prayers as you go through this difficult time. We are all going to miss Mikey B very much. He will not be forgotten. I pray that God grants you eternal rest until the day that all of us can be together again.
