Eileen was born on February 6, 1934 in Indianapolis, Indiana to Myron and Grayce (Chatham) Patterson. Eileen met Melvin Bowers and they married on July 25, 1954. In 1976, Melvin accepted a teaching job at Pillsbury Baptist Bible College in Owatonna, MN. Eileen worked in the financial office and was the Administrative Assistant to the Dean of Students. She was a loyal servant of Christ and was very active serving in her church until her health prevented her from doing so. When her health declined, she was an avid prayer warrior for all.

Eileen also had thirty great-grandchildren. Eileen was preceded in death by her husband Melvin, her mother and father, and her grandparents who raised her.
Eileen’s family wishes to thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers and is grateful to the staff at North Memorial Hospital and especially the staff at Eccumen Prairie Lodge in Brooklyn Center.
