Bowley regularly reaches out to widows to teach life lessons
that she has personally learned.
“Since I lost my husband in 1997, I’ve met customers who are
also widows,” Bowley said. “I try to give special attention to
them, help them with their banking needs, but also try to be
supportive, go the extra mile for them.”
Sometimes, that extra mile includes a lift to the grocery store
or just sitting to chat or watch TV. It all grows from Bowley’s
desire to help.
“Kathy’s rapport with the customers is amazing,” said Branch
Manager Brian Hartman. “She’s the reason why they say our branch
feels like a small, hometown bank. They know she cares, and they
look for her whenever they come into the branch.”
Bowley’s furry friends also appreciate when she comes around.
She volunteers weekly at St. Animal Pet Adoptions, a non-profit
organization in St. Ann, Mo.
“I give the animals food, water and medicine. I walk them, play
with them and clean up after them,” Bowley said.
She also helps organize adoption drives at local pet stores and
community events. Regions will donate $1,000 to St. Animal in honor
of Bowley’s Better Life Award recognition.
A video about Bowley, featuring her work with widows and
animals, can be viewed on the Regions Financial YouTube
channel.
