Sympathy to the Shepard and Stowers families in the passing of Ex-Supervisor Monzell Stowers. Monzell gained his heavenly wings last Sunday Night. He is resting at his niece’s funeral Home which is Cook Funeral Home. His final departure has not been organized at my press deadline.
Monzell was elected as the first black supervisor in Scott County. He was an avid Civil Rights Worker. If civil rights were involved, he planned on being a part of it. He worked alongside Henry Kirksey in those early days of civil rights.
He was a disabled American veteran who was acknowledged with the honor of a purple heart. He was a father to his children, whom he steadfastly help raise. He thoroughly believed in getting an education, so therefore he encouraged and pushed his children to get a college education. All of them acknowledged that want of his and they achieved the goal of being college educated.
He founded a piece of history in the small civil rights museum he started on Renfro Road.
