Vester "Granddaddy" Gowens
Mr.Gowens also known to our family as "Granddaddy", has been associated with our funeral home since 1955. He also worked in Piedmont at the Fred Pope Men's Clothing Store and was also a medical assistant in WWII. He also worked with Oscar Mickelsen for many years and has been associated with this funeral home since it's inception. Along with his funeral home duties, Mr. Gowens faithfully took care of all the maintenance and lawn care. Unfortunately, he is no longer physically able to work but he is a well loved and thought about as a very honorable man and an outstanding employee. We wish you well and we love you! Piedmont loves you! |
