Friends and family of slain Coral Springs Vice Mayor Nancy Metayer Bowen have established the Nancy Metayer Endowment, a fund that seeks to honor her legacy and help provide support for her loved ones following her death.
“Before serving in office, Nancy worked as an environmental scientist advancing water quality, public health, and disaster response efforts across Florida. Her leadership extended across numerous local and national boards, reflecting a lifelong commitment to sustainability, equity, and public service,” said a press release announcing the endowment.
Metayer Bowen was a widely respected political figure in Florida. She had served as the vice chair of the Florida Democratic Party and advocated for climate justice causes across the state.
