He served more than a million

For the past 11 years, Rob Bowman served as Head Cook and Food Service Manager at Wheeler’s Delaware site. From that kitchen, Rob served more than 1,000,000 meals in his tenure.
A little more than 140 days ago, Rob was diagnosed with Renal Cell Carcinoma. He fought his battle with this disease with his typical gusto. His love for the Lord, his wife Amy, and his son Ethan shined through even in his most difficult days. On February 24, he stepped into heaven - leaving behind his agonizing condition and into the arms of his Savior. He was 42 years of age.
You could describe Rob in many ways. He was a US Army veteran. He was a photographer, fisherman, and Major League Baseball fan. Rob was a hard worker. He was a man of deep faith. His last 140 days on this earth revealed a deep love and concern for his family and he spoke often with friends to make sure Amy and Ethan would be cared for when he could not care for them himself.
Please join me and Rob’s ‘Wheeler Family’ as we continue to pray for Rob’s wife, son, mom, dad, and siblings. We will miss him dearly.

Rick
