Lynn Diane Linton
Lynn Diane Linton, 84, passed away peacefully into the arms of her Lord and Savior on Monday, May 6, 2024, at the Center for Hospice Care-Esther House. At her bedside while she passed was her daughter and son-in-law, and very near, were her lifelong friends, Phyllis Dygert, Jan Reed, and Barb Smith. She was born on August 19, 1939, in Elkhart to Donald & Juanita (Kincaide) Bowers.
She married her high school sweetheart, Larry Linton, on June 23, 1957, in Elkhart. They remained inseparable until his passing in 2022. She was also preceded in death by her parents; a son, Todd Bowers Linton; and a brother, Donald Bowers, Jr.
Surviving is her daughter, Lori (Mike) Weaver of Elkhart; grandsons, Arec Simeri of Indianapolis, IN, and Christopher (Lia) Simeri of Carmel, IN; granddaughter, Anna (Sean Leary) Simeri of Van Nuys, CA; great-grandson, Audie Simeri of Carmel, IN; a great-granddaughter, on the way; and a sister-in-law, Janet Linton of Elkhart. Also surviving are many family members and close friends.
Lynn was employed at many places throughout her life, including owning Larilee Woodwind and later retiring from Elkhart General Hospital in 2013.
She volunteered for God’s Kitchen of Guidance Ministry for 15 years, and the Elkhart Hugs Project. Lynn was also a member of River Oaks Community Church for over 27 years.
She was a gifted seamstress, knitter, cook, and also enjoyed gardening with her husband. Her greatest joy was spending time with her friends and family. Lynn made her family a priority by always being there for them and never missing one of her children’s or grandchildren’s events. The memories and relationships she built with them truly showed through to the end when Lynn’s parting wish was to know the future name of her only great-granddaughter, that wish was honored.

Brooks J. BOWLES
1948 - 2017
Age 69, of Oregonia, OH passed peacefully July 7, 2017 at his home with his family by his side. Born April 24, 1948 in Dayton, OH, Brooks was the son of Jack F. and Ruth Evelyn (Harn) Bowles. Brooks graduated from Colonel White High School in 1968, attended Sinclair Community College, and worked for General Motors as a maintenance painter, and then a Journeyman painter. Brooks left the factory to enjoy being a self-employed owner/operator of two businesses for over 20 years: B & J Painting Services, interior and exterior residential house painting; and the Marigold Farm, raising and selling homegrown fruits and vegetables, free range eggs, and later adding greenhouses to sell vegetable and bedding plants. In 1989, Brooks went to work for the Otterbein Home Retirement Community as a residential painter, and then Paint Supervisor, and retired in 2008. Brooks was a very personable and hard-working man, who was extremely creative and loved working with his hands. He was humorous and he was a character. Brooks left an impression with everyone who met him. He loved farming and gardening, Ohio State football, good times with family and friends, and most of all, he loved music. Preceded in death by his parents, Brooks leaves behind his loving wife of 48 years Jo Ann (Dauby) Bowles; son, Bradley Bowles of Middletown, OH; daughter Sheryl Bannister and her husband Richard of Dublin, OH; sister Chery Supinger and her husband John of Cape Coral, FL; grandchildren, Brianna, Alyssa, Brooke, and Jared Bowles, and Jacqueline and Audrey Bannister; and many other family members and friends.
