http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/azcentral/obituary.aspx?n=William-Bowen&pid=163661552

Bowen, William John III

Passed away peacefully on March 1st, 2013 with his son Stanley and his wife Carol by his side.

Bill was born in New York on October 17th, 1942. He graduated from Manhattan College with a BA in Business and went on to get an MBA. In 1966 he joined the Air Force and quickly became Base Education Officer, later retiring at the rank of Captain. He returned to New York in 1970 and started his career with Peat, Marwick, Mitchell & Co. In 1972, he met Carol Ann, and they married that same year. Soon after, Bill accepted a position with American Express and relocated to Frankfurt, Germany. While in Germany, Bill and Carol became parents to Stanley. American Express brought them to Phoenix for the first time. They moved to Texas with Miller Brewing, Pennsylvania with Hershey Foods, Chicago with Borg Warner and Columbus with The Ohio State University.

Bill followed his heart in retirement and he and Carol settled in Paradise Valley. While in retirement all of his energy went into volunteering. Some of the volunteer activities he enjoyed working at include: the dog shelter, St. Mary’s Food Bank, Salvation Army, Franciscan Renewal Center, National Guard job fair, 3 Day Walk, and the PV Car Show. But his real passion was being a Paradise Valley Volunteer Police Officer where he made strong friendships.

Bill was a man who made you laugh. He was loving, giving, and a friend to all. He was an unbelievable husband, father, and grandfather. His faith was strong and his last thoughts were of family and friends who have gone before him. He was ready to meet them all again with God by his side. He is going to watch over his wife Carol, son Stanley, grandson Patrick and daughter-in-law Kerry.

A Memorial Mass will be held at 9am, March 19th at the Franciscan Renewal Center, 5802 E. Lin
coln Drive. Graveside Service will follow at 11am at the National Memorial Cemetery of AZ, 23029 N. Cave Creek Road followed by a luncheon at the Franciscan Renewal Center. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Hospice of the Valley , 1510 E. Flower St., Phx., AZ 85014.

Kevin was a class mate of mine and a relative of the O’Neill family who sent sons Pat and Jimmy to MC. Kevin was thus a regular at our former James K. O’Neill Memorial golf outing which sadly was discontinued a few years back when the matriarch of the O’Neill family was called Home.

JOBIT: Sweeney, Gerard M. “Gerry” [MC1964 RIP]

GERARD M. SWEENEY Ph.D.

READFIELD — Gerard M. “Gerry” Sweeney, 69, died Tuesday, May 15, 2012, after a courageous struggle with lung cancer at his home in Readfield. He was surrounded by his family, wife Coleen Sweeney (Barker) and daughters Megan (child from a previous marriage to Gail White), Fallon and Thalia.

Born to Alice Sweeney (Cassidy) and James P. Sweeney in New York City on Sept. 17, 1942, he was preceded in death by his brother James.

Gerry coupled his academic passion for gothic literature with a love of life, especially for the nature of Maine — his home since 2004. Gerry practiced Tai Chi for decades until his last days of life and shared an interest in books and movies with his family. He earned a bachelor of science degree in English in 1964 from Manhattan College, an MA in English in 1966 from New York University, and a Ph.D. in English from the University of Wisconsin, Madison, in 1972. During his 33 years as an English professor at the University of Akron (1971-2004), Gerry’s passion for the written word and teaching served as an inspiration to countless students. His dedication as a husband and father will be an inspiration to his wife and daughters always.

The family wishes to thank the health professionals at Maine General HealthReach Hospice for the support they gave Gerry and the family.

A celebration of Gerry’s life will be held at 2 p.m. on Sunday, May 20, at Roberts Funeral Home, 62 Bowdoin St., in Winthrop. A reception at the home will follow.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests a donation to one of Gerry’s favorite charities: Good Shepherd Food Bank of Auburn (P.O. Box 1807, Auburn, ME 04211).

By Staten Island Advance

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — John J. Szeligowski Sr., 69, of St. George, an environmental engineer involved in local issues, died Wednesday in Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, in Manhattan.

Born and raised in Brooklyn, he moved to Grymes Hill in 1968 and settled in Bay Street Landing, St. George, in 2003.

He had been working as an environmental engineer with AECOM, a Manhattan environmental firm. His work required travel around the country and the world to supervise and consult on projects. Closer to home, he was one of the lead advisers in drafting the environmental impact statement for the former Navy home port in Stapleton.

Mr. Szeligowski began his 35-year working career at Consolidated Edison. He also lent his expertise as a volunteer with Staten Island Citizens for Clean Air, and advocated for the closure of the Fresh Kills landfill.

He earned his bachelor’s degree in engineering from Manhattan College, the Bronx, and received his master’s degree in nuclear engineering from the University of Arizona.

In his leisure time he enjoyed spending time with his family, especially his grandchildren, and playing golf. He also was a fan of Notre Dame’s “Fighting Irish” football team and the New York Yankees.

Mr. Szeligowski was a member of the board of the Bay Street Landing Home Owners Association.

His wife of 40 years, the former Alexis Smith, died in 2009.

Surviving are his son, John Jr., his daughter, Karyn Fitzgibbons; his mother, Genevieve Szeligowski; a brother, Ted, and three grandchildren.

The funeral will be Monday from the Harmon Home for Funerals, West Brighton, with a mass at 10 a.m. in Our Lady of Good Counsel R.C. Church, Tompkinsville. Burial will follow in Moravian Cemetery, New Dorp.
