Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute.
Alexei David Bowers, age 25, of Suwanee, Georgia passed away on March 29, 2021.
Alexei was born on May 28, 1995 in Khabarovsk, Russia and was adopted in October 1996. In 1998, the family moved from Maryland to Suwanee, GA. In 2002, Alexei received a heart transplant due to cardiomyopathy. Alexei attended and was baptized at North Gwinnett Church. Throughout his childhood, he participated in several youth programs at the church, including AWANA. Alexei was the first student at North Gwinnett Church to receive the Timothy Award for his work in memorizing 300+ bible verses. Alexei loved to travel and was an avid reader and video gamer. Alexei graduated from North Gwinnett High School in May 2016. Alexei faced many medical challenges over his life, but always persevered using Joshua 1:9 (“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”) as his inspiration.
Alexei is survived by his mother and father, Anjela and Brett Bowers; sisters, Anastasia and Alexandra; grandparents, Bill and Betty Ann Sheridan; and many beloved aunts, uncles and cousins.

To Anji, Brett, Anya & Ally, Although Alexei will be greatly missed, I find some comfort in knowing that Alexei has been healed- completely. I’m sure he has found Mr. Miles and they are catching up with each other. Alexei promised me that he had everything worked out with Jesus & would see me again one day. I’m asking God to be your Comforter as you say your earthly goodbyes. I know you each have special memories of him. I know they will also bring you comfort and I hope they might even cause you to chuckle from time to time. He was a special young man and our family love him so. He will be missed but never forgotten and we will see him again, soon.
