After four brothers, was the first daughter in the family, and her parents were very happy. Her family left Punnichy when she was 16 (she went to school there to grade 10). Her father was in the army, and the family went to Toronto, Ontario, where Bowler worked for Simpson and Sears. She lived in Toronto for two years, then her future husband Fred came back. He and her father were friends in the army. Her father was discharged because of a bad eye. Fred went overseas and was told by Bowler's father to keep in touch with him. As her father didn't like writing, Bowler wrote to Fred every week for about two years (she was 16 then). Fred was born in Palmer, Saskatchewan. When Fred came back from the war, he stopped at Toronto. Bowler met him on Thursday, and on Monday, they were engaged. Her future husband went back home to Saskatchewan but after about four months, his mother got sick and had surgery, so they needed a house keeper. That was in March (1946), and they got married on September 14th. Before they got married, her future mother-in-law was very strict: Bowler had to share a bed with her and was never allowed to sleep somewhere else. She was Norwegian. Bowler did the work she was supposed to do. Shortly before her wedding, Bowler went to Regina, Saskatchewan, where she had a cousin who made her a wedding dress. Bowler stayed with her cousin, Fred with his uncle, and then they got married in Regina. After their wedding, they stayed at the King's hotel. September 14th, 1946, was a record heat day. It was a terrible wedding night as it was so hot. The next day they went back to Palmer, Saskatchewan, and a big dinner awaited them. A week later, Fred's sister staged a big party for them. Fred was building a two-room house in the meantime. Only in 1957, they built a kitchen and two bedrooms, and they had an upstairs where two boys had their rooms. The house is still standing in Palmer, Saskatchewan. They also had a porch and a basement.

For instance, she had to milk the cows.\nBowler's father cut what was called cordwood, and hauled it to the school and to other building because that's the way furnaces where heated in those days. Her father belonged to the cooperative at Punnichy where they dug trenches. Her parents would always watch their children when they were playing. They had no car, so her father had to walk to town.\nAsked about her mother's workday, Bowler replied that her mother kept the house \"as clean as clean\". She would always scrub the floor and do some shining (although it was a wooden floor). Her parental home had an upstairs where of the nine children were sleeping. One baby boy died in infancy. They had one bed that was called a hospital bed, she doesn't know where they got it from. Her sister and her slept in that bed. The mattresses were filled with straw. Her mother did a lot of sewing and knitting. Her mother passed her knowledge on to her daughters.\nThe walls in the house were made of beaverboard, and her mother would use calcimine to paint the walls in different colours. In the summertime, they had a lot of bed bugs. They used a special oil against them. They had plain curtains made of flour sacks.
