Timeline

2013

In April 2013, Nowlan, a native Philadelphian, was selected by the city of Philadelphia to create a statue of one of the city's best known sports figures, the late professional boxer and world heavyweight champion Joe Frazier. Nowlan had previously designed a well-known bronze statue of Harry Kalas, which was installed in the Citizen Bank Park in 2011. In a May 2013 with the Rutland Herald, unveiled his planned designed for the Frazier statue, which was intended to stand at 8-feet tall, weighing in at 800 pounds. Nowlan's designed to statue to depict Frazier with the left hook he used to knock out his opponent, Muhammad Ali, and win the 1971 Fight of the Century at Madison Square Garden. When completed, the statue will stand at the XFinity Live! Sports Complex in South Philadelphia.

Nowlan died in July 2013 before his statue of Joe Frazier could be completed. The Frazier family were described as being "stunned" by Nowlan's death. Nowlan's death left the final design for the statue in question, with project managers uncertain as to whether another sculptor would copy Nowlan's original design. Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter stated that the city will still build the statue saying, "We as a city are committed to the creation of a statue to honor Joe Frazier." Richard Hayden, the project manager for the Joe Frazier statue, called Nowlan's death a major blow, "We're just stunned by it...(Nowlan) was very excited about the project and so was the city and the Frazier family. We were finally at the point where we were going to commemorate the life of a boxing legend as opposed to (Rocky Balboa), a fake character from a movie. It's just stunning. It's very tragic."

Nowlan died unexpectedly of natural causes at his home in Cornish, New Hampshire, on July 30, 2013 at the age of 48. He was survived by his wife, Heather; their two children, daughter, Monet, and son, Teelin; and his six siblings, Peter, Joseph, Jeanne, Susan, Nancy and Danielle.
