In memory Scott Bohlman

We miss you now more than ever before, but God has opened a door and shown us how to go on without you, to give us some hope and comfort too. For you were our life and we loved you so dear…and it breaks our heart to not have you here, but life goes on and we will too. We just wish it wouldn’t have to go on without you.

Love,

8-1*                   Jami, Braden, Jordan
