Find a Grave Obituary (as at 11 December 2023):
Elmo Dowling passed away November 5, 2014 in Gainesville after a lengthy struggle with dementia and related complications. He was born March 31, 1925, in New River, FL to Corrie and Joe Lee Dowling. He grew up in Live Oak, becoming an Eagle Scout and playing semi-pro baseball.
Elmo joined the Coast Guard during World War II and returned to attend the University of Florida, earning a Master's degree in Agriculture and a Professional Engineering license. The first part of his career was diverse; managing gladiola farms, teaching at UF's College of Agriculture, and becoming the National Sales Manager for LR Nelson Manufacturing Corporation. He spent the last two decades of his career as the owner-operator of AWF, an irrigation equipment company.
Elmo is survived by his four children; Terry Lee Dowling Knight (Bill) of Lakeland, James Edward Dowling of Gainesville, Joseph Everett Dowling Soka (Christina) of Chattanooga, and Mary Beth Dowling of Atlanta; nine grandchildren and 12 great grandchildren. He is preceded in death by his wife, Betsy Myer Dowling, and sisters Vivian Dowling Holden and Agnes Lucille Dowling.
