Brian Boehme
February 19, 1948 - November 25, 2013
"Hey you want to axe me a question?"
Brian "Bringo" Boehme passed away November 25th, 2013 due to health complications from Agent Orange. He was born on February 19th, 1948 to Ervin and Barbara Boehme in Boise, ID.
Brian met, fell in love, and claimed Michelle Burleson as his own on their first blind date. The feeling wasn't completely mutual, but Brian knew they were meant for each other. From the intuition of his heart they produced three beautiful children Christian, Zachary, and Bethany.
Brian faithfully served his country in the Army during the Vietnam War.
Contrary to his gruff exterior Brian had a heart of gold, and would do anything for anybody at anytime. Fish feared him, but his friends and family adored him. He was the most amazing husband, father, grandfather, uncle and friend.
The highlight of Brians' summer were going to Hebgen Lake and enjoying the beautiful tomatoes from his garden. He didn't like to admit it, but he loved his dogs and grand-dogs tremendously. His grandchildren were the light of his life.
He is survived by his beautiful and devoted wife Michelle "Medd"; children Christian (Marjorie) and Bethany (Jake) Naylor; grandchildren Dylan, Samuel, Olivia, Nathan, Lynn, Zach, Connor, Elena, Ethan, Haylee and Kyrra; brothers Lynn (Renee), and Fred (Kristy); sisters Loraine (Steve), LeeAnn (Carl), Carolee (Randy) and Marlene (Bruce) Olsen; "brother from another mother" Sherman (Jacque) Bolton; father-in-law Frank; and friends and family too numerous to count.
Preceded in death by his dutiful son Zachary; his parents; favorite aunt GoGo; brother-in-law Jeff; and many other loved ones.
Brian would be so mad if we had a funeral and cried over him. In keeping with his wishes there will be a wake to celebrate his life on Saturday, November 30th at 1:00 to 4:00 PM at Totem's, 538 S. Redwood Rd., Salt Lake City.
"I'm ai'ght Ming."

Brian was like a second Dad to Corky, I'm so glad he was there after Gary and Zack were both gone. We had great times in Yellowstone with the whole family. We will miss him so much. He was such a great guy!

Sorry for your loss. I wish I would have shared a little more time with him before this. He walked tall on the earth.
