Golden Funeral Home - August 2017
GARY DEAN ROWTON


Gary Dean Rowton was born August 19, 1952 and was granted eternal rest from this
mortal life on August 26, 2017 at the age of 65.  He lived most of his life in the
Monroe and West Monroe area, and spent those years working as a roofer, laying tile,
and as a mechanic, and spent several years working at White Rose Laundry.
Lord, My God, I called out to you for help.  And you healed me. (Ps 30:2)
Gary walked a hard road and fought a lifelong battle with many demons.  It wasn’t
always a losing battle, however, and his true nature of kindness and love was
abundant in those times.  There are many great memories to be shared and held on to;
happy times to reminisce about and lessons to be passed on.  Gary loved to fish,
loved football, and loved the outdoors.  He was witty and creative, and will forever
be missed and gratefully remembered by those he leaves behind. 
He was preceded in death by his parents, Georgie Dean and Dal Rowton, and brothers,
Lonnie ‘Ricky’ Rowton. Sr. and Ronnie Rowton. 
He is survived by his daughter, Amy Rowton Estes and husband John, granddaughters,
Alivia Grace Estes and Savana Faith Estes; brothers, Charles Rowton & wife Carolyn
and George Rowton & wife Patricia; sisters, Donna Bridges, Kathy McKnight, and Gail
Fletcher; numerous nieces, nephews and cousins; his former wife, forever love, and
mother of his only child, Glenda Kay Rowton; and his brother-from-another-mother and
friend until the very end, Terry Bridges.
In lieu of a service, the family asks that memorial donations be made to Grace Place
Ministries @ 1600 Jackson St., Monroe, LA 71202, Rays of Sonshine, or a recovery
program of your choosing.  We would also like to thank the nurses, doctors, and
staff of University Health Conway ICU Department for the compassion and kindness
shown to Gary and his family in his final days.
In my next life, I want to be your hero… In my next life, I’ll make you proud of me.
