In remembrance of her spirit, Vickie’s parents, Robert “Bob”
and Marilynn Bowler and family members have established
the Victoria Bowler Memorial Scholarship at CPCC for
deserving students preparing for a career in the paralegal
profession. In addition, an Outstanding Volunteer Memorial
Award is presented each year at Camp SOAR in Vickie’s
honor.

Vickie was born in Youngstown, Ohio. A smart, witty and
incredibly lovely young woman with an amazing commitment
to caring for others. She was passionate about her volunteer
work at Levine Children’s Hospital in the cancer center,
Make-A-Wish Foundation, Special Olympics/Camp SOAR,
the homeless shelter, senior citizens Bingo and Kids First.
In addition to her volunteer commitments, she enjoyed
horseback riding, golf, tennis, and working out, finding joy
in everything she did. Before her untimely passing on April
4, 2012, Vickie was employed as a paralegal by Stiles, Byrum
& Horne Law Firm in Charlotte.
