Dennis R. Mowery

On May 17, Dennis R. Mowery of New Providence, met Jesus face to face and joined the great cloud of witnesses as his earthly race of endurance came to a close. Dennis was born in Junction City Kansas, September 23, 1968 while his father served in the United States Army. He was the son of the late Eugene R. Mowery and Catherine M. (Stefanovige) Mowery.

Dennis was a devoted husband, father and grandfather who lived to care and sacrifice for his family. Maddie, Stephen, Kathleen, Jared, Nicholas, Preston and Sarah were the apples of his eye. His legacy lives on through the love he gave each one individually. His children have many special memories, which include summer vacations at Aunt Nancy and Uncle Nick's, trips to the mountains in Sullivan County and even watching repeated episodes of Corner Gas, which Dennis loved.

Dennis loved leisure motorcycle rides with friends and also rode to raise money for various organizations including The Make A Wish Foundation and The Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation.

Dennis' knowledge and expertise was valued by his friends and co-workers where he was employed as diesel truck mechanic at H.R. Ewell, Inc., in East Earl, Pennsylvania.

Dennis joined his daughter, Sarah J. who went to be with Jesus 13 years ago. Dennis is survived by his wife of 24 years, Kimberly A. (Gildersleeve) Mowery, His children, Madeline L. Mowery of Kinzers, Stephen R. Mowery of Parkesburg, Kathleen M. wife of Brandon Herman of Columbia, Jared E. Mowery of Quarryville, Nicholas R. husband of Courtney M.
