Robert Lindsey "Bob" Bowling, 87, husband of Suzie Stucker Bowling, passed away Monday, April 6, 2020 in Okeechobee, FL.  Born May 5, 1932 in Lagrange, KY, Bob was the son of the late Lemuel Reuben Bowling and Mildred Florence Kerlin.

Along with his parents, Bob was preceded in death by his first wife, Eva Pillow Bowling, his son Bobby Bowling and a grandson Matthew Carter.

Bob retired as Superintendent with Kentucky Utilities Tyrone Power Plant where he worked for 43 years.  He was a member of the Lawrenceburg First Baptist Church.  In recent years Bob and his wife Suzie spent half of their time in Lawrenceburg and the other half in Okeechobee, Florida.  Bob loved working with his hands especially woodworking and also enjoyed fishing.  He could fix almost anything and never turned anyone down who needed help with cars, trucks, motorcycles, bulldozers, or even the courthouse clock.

Including his wife, Bob is survived by daughters, Ann Votaw (husband Steve) of Lawrenceburg and Carolyn Elizabeth Carrier (husband Houston) of Lawrenceburg; three grandchildren, Lindsey Barnett, Derek Votaw (Laurett), and Patrick Votaw; four great grandchildren, Ty Barnett, Kara Barnett, Mia Wainscott, and Bryson Arnold; and his brother, James H.
