July 4, 2002Our dear mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Cleo Richardson Bowen, age 83, passed away July 2, 2002, in West Valley City, Utah.
Born February 7, 1919, in Benjamin, Utah, to Thomas Leslie Richardson and Hazel Ludlow. Married Lewis Keith Bowen June 5, 1939, in the Salt Lake LDS Temple.
Talent and love have been the hallmarks of Cleo's life. She developed her musical talents at an early age, and she enjoyed sharing them. Her skill on piano and organ have enriched church services and other public and private gatherings, and she loved sharing her alto voice locally and at LDS General Conference with "The Singing Mothers." For many years, Murray High School graduates marched for their diplomas to Cleo's organ melodie
Cleo's secretarial career took her into offices from Spanish Fork to Salt Lake City, culminating in 26 years at Murray High School as secretary-registrar. She cherished her friendships with Murray's students, faculty and administrators. Her career interests took her outside the school to the Utah Educational Secretaries Association, serving as state president and as national delegate. In later years, she and Keith enjoyed promoting and selling many products, but their real goals were to travel and spend time together.
Above all, the great theme of Cleo's life was family. She loved her time with her immediate and extended family, and she devotedly served those who were ill and nearing death. Drawing her family around her for special or everyday occasions was a primary aim for Cleo.
Cleo and Keith treasured their friendships from Spanish Fork, Burbank, San Diego, and Salt Lake South Cottonwood 5th Ward and Butler 4th Ward. Thank you, all.
Our family is most grateful for those who loved and served Cleo in her declining years at Salt Lake Home and at Rocky Mountain Care at West Valle

Mom was a true homemaker, who loved and served her family and countless others. She served in many callings in both ward and stake positions. She was also a faithful visiting teacher for many years. She was called to serve as a missionary in the Arizona Tempe Mission and also loved serving as a Temple Worker in the Provo Temple where she served for over 10 years. Mom loved anything that involved her family. You could find her at blessings, baptisms, dance review, ballgames of any kind, graduations, 31 games or a good video just to name a few. She was also an avid Jazz fan, and loved her Spanish Fork Dons Baseball. She truly understood the role of Mom and Grandma. Mom enjoyed making quilts (especially baby), baby bibs, caramels and fattigamans that each family received countless of. Each new baby received a new quilt and everyone always received a Christmas package with the caramels and fattigmans.
Preceding her in death were her husbands, Kenneth and Max, her daughter Kathleen, and a grandson Jode Chase Bingham.
