Billy Edward Fowler, age 85, of Norman OK, passed away September 24, 2016. He was born February 22, 1931, in Waxahachie, Tx, to Willy Fowler and Ruby Loraine Wood Fowler. Bill was a true gentleman and self-taught success. He found his calling and passion in the car business becoming a successful auto dealer. After founding Fowler Toyota of Norman in 1973, he and his partners Mike and Don would go on to grow the business to over 600 employees in the Oklahoma and Colorado markets. He enjoyed spending his time reading anything he could get his hands on, and spending time with his family. He especially loved spending time with his grandchildren, who all knew him as a world champion checkers player, telling stories and sharing wisdom. An eternal optimist, he always looked for good in others and wanted the best for those around him. Bill is survived by his wife of 53 years, Jo, of the home; three sons and three daughters, Bill Fowler Jr., Mike Fowler and wife Terri, David Fowler and wife Pam, Pam Washam, Marsha McGuire, and Suzy Fowler Griffin and husband Don; 11 grandchildren; nine great grandchildren; and a host of other loving family members and friends. He is preceded in death by his parents. Services to honor Bill’s life will be held at 2p, Wednesday, September 28th, 2016, at Bridgeview United Methodist Church, 4300 W. Indian Hills Rd, Norman Ok.
