in remembrance
Linda Mardean “Marty” Fowler passed away suddenly on Monday, August 18th, in Oklahoma City. She was born on November 4, 1947, in Bartlesville. She grew up in Dewey, OK, graduating from Dewey in the class of 1967. She attended NEO University in Miami OK, taught P.E. in Siloam Springs AR, and in Bartlesville, and then in Oklahoma City. She taught for many years at Wilson Arts Integration Elementary School in OKC. She was probably the most beloved teacher in the nearly 100 year old history of Wilson. She touched the lives of hundreds of people in a way they never seem to forget and for which they are always grateful. High school and college students come back looking for her; they look for other teachers but they always look for her FIRST.
She is survived by her life-mate Beverly Grigsby of the home in OKC, and by her brother and sister-in-law, Clarence L. and Cheri Fowler, nephew Logan Fowler and great-nephew Kaiden N. Fowler, all of Dewey.
