The Life of BEAU JON FOWLER
Beau J. Fowler, 53, died in West Palm Beach, Florida, after a relatively brief struggle with Lou Gehrig’s Disease. Beau was born in Des Moines November 11, 1959, the first of many Iowa children delivered by Dr. Elizabeth A. Burrows. He attended Callanan Jr. High School and Roosevelt High School.
Beau was united in marriage to Rhonda Konchalski in Des Moines on April 21, 1990. Two children, Brittany and James, were born to this union. While still in Iowa, Beau worked in automobile sales and other sales positions.
Beau was preceded in death by his grandparents and his mother, Emma Jane Wickham Fowler. He is survived by his father, James; children, Brittany and James, all of Des Moines; uncles, James (Susan) Wickham of Des Moines, John Wickham (Judy Dahl) of Littleton, Colorado, and Dr. Richard Fowler of San Diego, California; aunts, Barbara Fowler of Morristown, New Jersey and Mary of California; and many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
Beau’s family wishes to thank Hospice of West Palm Beach and Beau’s friends in that community who were of great assistance to Beau as his disease rapidly progressed, especially to Marion Jager and D.J. Jaeschke.
A private service is planned.
In lieu of flowers, Beau’s family suggests memorials to Hospice of West Palm Beach or the ALS Foundation.
