Obituary of Christopher Bowers

Chris Shawn Bowers, 44 of Moberly, MO passed away unexpectedly Monday, January 11, 2021.

Chris was born October 13, 1976 in Phoenix, AZ to John Hicks and Judy Prange.

Chris’ family moved to the Moberly area from Phoenix in 1994.  There he graduated from Moberly Senior High School. Upon graduation, he enlisted into the United States Marine Corps. He served honorably from 1996-1998. In 1998, he wed Jennifer Forgey, and of this union, their two sons Aaron and Nicholas were born.

Chris was a jack of all trades. If he wasn’t fixing something in the house, he was fixing something with the car. He was a real handyman. In his free time he enjoyed watching the Dallas Cowboys and Supernatural. He loved helping with Motocross. He was a great uncle, always joking around and making us laugh. He will be deeply missed.

Chris is preceded in death by his parents, John Hicks and Judy Prange; and grandmother, Katie Daunhemier.
