When not working, you could find him bicycling, snowshoeing, working in his garden, and reading. He was an avid reader who devoured books and loved sharing thoughts and ideas with others. He was an electrician, adventurer, philosopher, and friend to all.

He was a member of the United Methodist Church in Montgomery, a library trustee for the Montgomery Town Library, and a founding member of the Montgomery Cattlemen's Association.

Al was a wonderful husband to Sandy (Commons) Bowman, who was the love of his life, they were married Nov. 30, 1990. He was also a beloved stepfather to Jill Schoff and her husband, Eric, of Wallingford, Conn., and Joshua Potvin of Montgomery. He is also survived by his mother, Jane Bowman; a niece, Shannon Gruzwalski, both of Warren, Mich.; and many extended family members and friends.
