THANK YOU
The family of Ben Boehm would like to send a sincere appreciation and THANK YOU to everybody for the kind words, hugs, food, flowers, cards, donations and prayers. As you all know Ben completed our family. He gave us everything a son/brother could give; love, laughter, and frustration. Ben was the best friend a person could have. He was always there when you needed him no matter what. Thank you for sharing your memories, for these memories will keep him alive in us forever. We will never know why his life was cut short. But do know is that while he was here with us he made us laugh and made us feel safe. We truly believe that is how he would like to be remembered. We would like to thank the paramedics, police, coroner's office, professional services, and Fletchers' for their thoughtfulness and professionalism shown to our family. We would also like to thank Rev. Barnabas and the Grace United Church for the lovely service and lunch prepared for all of our friends and family. Last but not least we would like to thank Rene Jakubowski for putting together the awesome video of Ben and all of the family and friends that traveled many miles to be with us in our time of need.
Doug, Cindy Ann, Jason and Shelby Boehm and Misty "The Beagle"
