Letty Mae McGowan Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Letty Mae McGowan was called home to Jesus on Easter Sunday, April 12, 2020, peacefully at her home in Siloam Springs, Arkansas. Born in Minnesota on August 17, 1959, Letty eventually found her way to California where she raised her one daughter, Kelly, and spent several years working at a local church and enjoying life in the Los Angeles sun. She was a passionate lover of the Lord, cared well for those in her community, and especially loved being a mom to Kelly and sister to Sam. Letty was also a resourceful creator - from Kelly’s Halloween costumes to wedding dress, from diaper bags to play teepees - she could figure out how to create almost anything out of very little. Within the last year she had the joy of becoming a grandmother (Babushka, as she preferred to be called) to her sweet grandson, Beau, and made it a priority to spend several months in Oregon, where she successfully taught him elephant sounds and the importance of eating his fruits and veggies. Kelly will always remember Letty as the best mom and an ally - dedicated, full of conviction, independent. Together with her husband Greg, their son Beau, Aunt Sam and Nephew Nick, they will forever honor and celebrate Letty’s life and look forward to the day they’ll reunite in a better place. Letty was always a free spirit / didn’t like to make a fuss. No services are planned at this time. In lieu of flowers, you may make donations to ReIgnite Hope at http://www.reignitehope.com/give/.
