The Idaho Statesman, June 15, 2003
Local Page 7 (src: Find A grave) E. Reed Sower, 87, of Boise, passed away peacefully
Thursday, June 12, 2003, at his granddaughter Jenna Arreguis'
home in Meridian surrounded by family. At his request, no services will be held. He chose
to be cremated, and his ashes will be spread in special places he loved the
very most. Reed was born Sept 13, 1915, in Nampa to Clare and
Elva Sower, growing up in the Nampa-Caldwell area. Upon graduation from Nampa
High School. Reed participated in the All Northwest High School Orchestra as
first-chair trombone. He received a scholarship to a national music camp and
later played trombone in local dance bands, orchestras and municipal bands
for 63 years. Reed graduated from the College of Idaho in 1940
and was very active in musical affairs, was director
of the College of Idaho Pep Band and student body president. He was a member
of the 116th Cavalry Band starting in 1930. He was a high school music
teacher in Parma until being called into active Army Air Corps service in
1941. Reed was honorably discharged in 1945 as a lieutenant colonel in the
Air Force. Reed owned the Top Notch Cafe in Pocatello for 10
years, and people still remember his wonderful hamburgers and clam chowder.
He joined the Social Security Administration in 1955, worked as a field rep
in Boise, and retired in 1976. In addition to his lifetime interest in music. Reed
was an avid amateur photographer and has documented on film 66 years of
incredible memories for so many people to enjoy for years to come. The family
was playing those videos and enjoying them with Reed during his last days and
hours. He had a marvelous sense of humor recorded on these films, and we will
continue to laugh through our tears of sadness, just as he would have wanted.
He married Alice Giddings on June 17, 1940, and she
was his beloved for 63 years and he adored her. Reed enjoyed the outdoors,
especially McCall and the surrounding lakes. Reed's father, Clare Sower, was
a mail clerk on the Nampa-McCall train and Reed used to watch him in the mail
car as a young boy, his fondest unfulfilled desire was to be a railroad
engineer. He loved trains of all kinds, as he did McCall. He knew every
huckleberry patch and fishing hole. When Cascade Lake would freeze, he would
cut a hole in the ice to fish. He and Alice often packed a lunch got in their
boat, and spent the day together, coming back with fish and berries. They
built a new cabin on the shore of Payette Lake on property purchased by
Reed's parents in 1915. The memories and the fun that the entire family
continue to have there will always be the place where Reed's heart most
resides. Five generations have now shared his deep love of his special cabin
in McCall. Reed also loved his trips to Alaska to visit and cut wood with his
son, Jim. He taught his sons to hunt and instilled in them a love of the
outdoors. Reed was an active member and sang in the choirs at
the First United Methodist Church, Cathedral at the Rockies. Reed was an
incredibly unselfish man a doting husband an amazing father, brother,
grandfather and great-grandfather. He was quite the teller of tales,
especially "Uncle Remus" stories, and he had a zest for life and
cared deeply about other people, never himself. He loved to cook and make
pies for anyone on any occasion. The aroma of his fabulous pancakes awakened
the family every morning at the cabin. He loved to pick and can cherries,
apricots and peaches every summer. He loved music and played in bands for 67
years and passed to his family an intense joy of music. Reed was preceded in death by his parents, Clare
and Elva Sower, his brothers, Stan Sower, Bob Sower, Dr. Norman Sower and his
infant twin daughters, Jean and Jan Sower. He is survived by his "sweetheart" Alice,
his beloved sister, Maxine Randall, who has done so much for Reed and Alice
for so many years, Maxine and Reed's daughter, Charmi,
made his last months much more personal as active
caregivers to him. Reed is also survived by a son, Ron Sower (wife Patty) of
Westlake Village, Calif., Jim Sower (wife Diane) at Boise and daughter, Charmi Arregui of Boise. Reed
also leaves behind five grandchildren, Angie Arregui
(husband Bob) and their sons Travis and Nathan of Boise, Tiffany Arregui of San Jose, Calif., Jenna Arregui
of Meridian, Scott Sower and Ryan Sower of Panorama City, Calif. He is also
survived by sisters-in-law, Myrna Caron of McCall, Maude Sower of Caldwell
and Judy Sower of McCall, and numerous nieces and nephews. The family is grateful for the care given to Reed
by Alterra Assisted Living. We would he to especially thank Dr. William
Bollinger and Dr. Roger Stagg for their kind and sensitive treatment and
always making time to go that extra mile. Memorials may be made to a charity of your choice. 2003 Burial: none. |
