Ardice Marie Bowles Stellflug was born June 4, 1953 to Leon W. and Rita E. (Beauchman) Bowles. She passed away at home on January 23, 2005. She was raised in Glasgow, MT but spent many summers with her Grandparents, Florence and Doc Copen in Lewistown. She was the oldest of four children. She had two sisters, Renee Bowles, Nancy (Bowles) Dale, and a brother Hal Bowles. She attended St. Raphael's Catholic Grade School and then graduated from Glasgow High School in 1971. She attended Eastern Montana College in Billings, MT and Montana State University in Bozeman, MT where she studied photography, which was a passion of hers.
In 1968 she met and fell in love with Richard Stellflug. They were married at St. Raphael's Catholic Church July 22, 1972 and honeymooned in Yellowstone National Park. They lived and worked at the family's Tiger Butte Angus Ranch between Glasgow and Nashua. In 1975 they had their first child, a daughter, Stacy Marie. In 1977 they were blessed with a second child, a son, Justin Lynn. In 1977 after her parents and sister Renee were killed they moved back to Glasgow to live with her brother Hal and sister Nancy.
They continued to reside in Glasgow seeing both of their children graduate from Glasgow High School after which Stacy went to college and Justin joined the Air Force. In 1991 she was diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis, a rare autoimmune disorder that frequently robbed her of her energy but didn't stop her from doing the things she loved.
Mom thoroughly enjoyed spending time with her family and being involved in many activities in the community. One of her most cherished past-times was planning, organizing, and spending time being involved with the Northeast Montana Quarter Horse Association and the 4-H Horse Shows. Her hobbies included sewing, reading, tending to her flowers and houseplants. She also enjoyed having coffee and lunch with her good friends. Another favorite pastime of Mom's was checking out the countryside with Dad.
Mom was a kind and generous person always willing to help others. She knew just when to tell you to buck up and when to give you a shoulder to cry on. Even when she didn't feel well she had time to talk to a mend or family member about whatever was on their mind. One of her best buddies and constant companions was her Yorkshire Terrier, Paddy. Paddy came into mom's life on Mother's Day as a gift trom us. Paddy and mom were inseparable. One of mom's happiest days was finding out that she was actually going to be a grandmother with her first grandbaby to be born this April. She found out that her second grandbaby was to be born in August and couldn't believe that she finally would have grandchildren.
Survivors include her husband, Rick of Glasgow; children, Stacy and her husband Mike Handley of Billings, MT and Justin and his wife Michelle currently stationed in Germany, brother Hal and wife Nancy Bowles of Hulett, WY and their daughters Megan and Mariah, and sister Nancy and husband Mike Dale of Glasgow, MT and their children Melissa and Nathan.
