Frank Bowers

According to my father, Lynard Bowers, he discovered that Frank Bowers worked for the Church Building Committee for many years. Stan Porter was up in Salt Lake City, Utah one time speaking with the committee about a job for the church. Stan was head of Porter Brothers who built chapels in Arizona for the church. They would periodically go up to Salt Lake for meetings. When they came back from a visit, they asked Lynard if he was related to a Frank Bowers. And the connection was made.
