Her hobbies were reading (She was an avid reader. If it could hold her attention, she would read it) and bingo. Eunice was an outstanding wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend. She was a lover of people, especially children. She raised many (Raise your hand if you're one them). She was a true inspiration and fought valiantly throughout her illness. Though her load grew heavier and heavier she continued to carry it without complaining. She's now resting in God's arms. She's now at peace with no more pain. She fought a good fight. Her strength was amazing. She was preceded in death by two brothers Robert and Linwood Bowser. She leaves to cherish her memories her loving husband of 43 years, Lorenzo Pearson and two sons Bruce Bowser and Michael Price. Michael blessed her with two grandsons, Hasaan and Melquan Price, and one granddaughter Mica Price.
