Donna Bowen, listed as missing at the Pentagon, spent more than 20 years working for Verizon Communications and its predecessor, C&P Telephone. But her work there is not the first thing that comes to mind when people think of his wife, Eugene Bowen said yesterday from their home in Waldorf.
"Verizon would let her leave work one day a week to work at Berry Elementary," he said, referring to the school in Waldorf where the couple's three children are enrolled. "Whenever she wasn't at work, all her attention was given to children's education. All her spare time, she was down at the school."
Mrs. Bowen, 42, is a communications representative for Verizon under contract to the Pentagon.
A longtime member of Local 2336 of the Communications Workers of America, she has been at the Pentagon three years, working with Army accountants on questions related to their phone bills.
A Boston native, she moved to Waldorf after marrying Eugene Bowen 11 years ago. The couple has two daughters, ages 7 and 10, and a son, 8.
