Kyle G. Bohrnsen Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Apr. 12, 2007.
A towering young man at 6-foot-3 and easily over 250 pounds, Kyle G. Bohrnsen never used intimidation to get his point across. Instead, he used a solid handshake and gentle demeanor. "Kyle never had trouble with people for one reason," said Mike Cutler, his former principal. "They all respected him. And not just because of his size. He was a quiet leader; he led by example." Bohrnsen, 22, of Philipsburg, Mont., was killed by a roadside bomb April 10 in Baghdad. He was assigned to Fort Carson. "He had what his sergeant called ''the ability to make a career out of this,''" said his father, Geoff. "Even over there, people looked up to Kyle." In his free time, Bohrnsen loved bow hunting for elk and snowmobiling. He worked as a professional hunting guide at Big M Outfitters. Bob Hogue, owner and operator, said he knew the country better than any guide they employed. "We were skeptical hiring such a young kid, but that thought soon faded," said Hogue. "He became part of our family and was an unbelievable role model and friend to our son." He also is survived by his mother, Lisa.

Hello,
We would like to express our deepest condolences and to also let the Bohrnsen Family know that we recently sent Care Packages to American troops in the war zones. Each box carried a dedication sheet that includes the name, service information and a photo of your loved one, Kyle G. Bohrnsen US Army Private 1st Class. We recognize that this is a humble tribute, but we wanted you to know that it is heartfelt and made possible by thousands of like-minded individuals in the youth hockey community and beyond. We will not forget. May God Bless you and keep you strong.
Sincerely,
Charlie Gili & Family

I did not know Kyle but his aunt Martha was kind enough to sign the guestbook for my special, dear, "angel on earth", friend, neighbor and adopted son, Niall D. Lyons, who was killed on October 26, 2009 in Afghanistan.

So, to Kyle I say, God bless you dear son. You will never, ever be forgotten. You are my hero.

To Kyle's family and friends, my heart grieves along with yours. May we all find solace somehow knowing our heroes died for us and for freedom.

Kyle,
Its been a year since you were taken from us and there hasnt been a day i dont think about what a great person you were. Everytime i see a U.S. Flag hear the national anthem or see an army uniform i think of you. We had a lot of good times together and i'll never forget what a great person you were. My prayers goe out to your family as your sister enters the army today i wish her the best of luck and we are all very proud of her.

April 10, 2008

Holding you all in my thoughts and prayers today.


The Wind on The Downs

“I like to think of you as brown and tall,
As strong and living as you used to be,
In khaki tunic, Sam Brown belt and all,
And standing there and laughing down at me.
Because they tell me, dear, that you are dead,
Because I can no longer see your face,
You have not died, it is not true, instead
You seek adventure in some other place.
That you are round about me, I believe;
I hear you laughing as you used to do,
Yet loving all the things I think of you;
And knowing you are happy, should I grieve?
You follow and are watchful where I go.”

(Written by Marian Allen during World War l )

Two lines that I wish you to keep near your heart…….

“You seek adventure in some other place.
That you are round about me, I believe”

Please contact me and I will email you back a copy of the Angel drawing I have posted here.

I did not know Kyle, but I am remembering on
this day he gave his all.
He is my hero.

Thank you for the sacrifice made by Pfc Bohrnsen and the sacrifice made by everyone who loves and misses him! May God bless all of you!!

August 6, 2007

I don't pretend to know what to say or do that would bring you peace in your time of sorrow, but I will offer my heart felt condolences. I also offer you my prayers that in time the pain will easy and the memories of your HERO will carry you through each day and night. I want to thank your HERO, for his/her selfless act of becoming a member of the armed forces, his/her willingness to defend the United States of America, all that we hold sacred and for the sacrifice that will forever be etched in the memories of all those who knew him/her. Though tears can never bring him/her back, we hope that our tears express our gratitude for the sacrifice that he/she made and our sorrow at his/her passing. I believe for every fallen HERO there is a star shining brightly up above to remind us of the precious gift we were given.

Your mission on earth is complete and you are now a member of GOD’s Heavenly armed forces. Stand down brave warrior and take your rightful place in Heaven with all the HEROES who have passed before.

I made a special promise to LE RON A. WILSON (KIA on 07/06/07) on the day he was laid to rest as I touched his coffin, that I would never forget him nor would I forget those that gave their lives for our country before him, with him and after him and so when I came across www.legacy.com, I thought what a great way to keep my promise to Le Ron, so I will continue to leave tributes in each guest book until the day there is no longer the need to leave these tributes to a FALLEN HERO.

REST IN PEACE, HERO, YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!

“Soldier”
Written to Honor the Service of Our Fallen Soldiers

Soldiers write history…they pay the price
Many miles distant, you live the life
Entered the Battle of our own free will
Out of Duty for Country, and we’d do it still

We hope and pray that all will find peace
In God, in the flag, in memories of valor
Gone now, our pride and courage you see
“An Army of One” our motto forever

Willing to risk all for love of our Brothers
We’re still Your Soldiers…and we showed the way
Our Lives too short, now pray for the others
Lived free died Heroes in lands far away

Deep within souls all cherished our Service
We’ll always have what some never know
Courage and Honor, our names forever
Lived life with purpose…just our time to go

We march in the Heavens with Honor and Glory
Missions accomplished we fought the Good Fight
Many years from now…we’ll tell the full story
Until that Day we will live in the Light

Our lives we laid down in a land far away
Still watching o’er you this night and by day
No need to talk…just know we are with you
There in your hearts and we hear what you pray

Yes we are your soldiers
Our lives we laid down
Still We guard o’er you
Still Duty bound

Entered the Battle of our own free will
Out of Duty for Country, and we’d do it still
We’ll always have what some never know
Lived life with purpose…it was our time to go

I was shocked to hear of the loss of Kyle when I read about it in the Bozeman paper. I don't believe that we have ever met in person but I certainly do know that you are family from the stories that I have heard about you all from my grandparents Herman and Florence Holling. I regret never meeting Kyle - he sounds like quite a young man. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Lisa and her dear family, Peggy and Jim: Our hearts remain broken at the news of your son, Kyle. We want to express our deepest sympathy to all of you. Words cannot define all we would like to say.

I notified Margene and she too is very sad for your family.

We are very proud of our service men and women and this great country that they are trying to protect. I feel upset anytime I see people who do not honor the flag that so many young people gave up their lives to defend.

May God bless you and give you the strength to continue your lives without your precious son.

I just want to start off by saying that I am sincerely sorry for the loss that this country has received. We have lost an amazing person that we all knew and loved in our small town. I grew up with him for a great deal of my life. The reality hasn't really set in until today when his body came home!

I am so sorry to hear about another fallen! I know there are no words that I can say to ease your pain! The loss of a child is something that is the most difficult thing to bare. We can only pray that one day we will be together again. I was told that if you stretch a piece of string a mile long and line that string with beads, the beads would resemble eternity. Life here on earth is equal to “only one bead”. We have only a short time here compared to the time we will spend in eternity with our loved ones. The only thing I can say is let faith keep you grounded in your life and hold on to your loved ones! This will help you through! This is what helps me get through my days, I too have lost. My son entered into the Heavens to be with our Lord!
God Bless Your Family!

Stand down Soldier your mission is complete.

We can't imagine what you have been going through since being notified of the death of your young Warrior. The Military and families all over the USA and world are grieving with you and praying for you. What a very brave individual you have in your family that would give up a life for their homeland and its people so they can remain free. Your Freedom Fighter has served the Country above and beyond the call of duty, let no one ever tell you different. With the mission now completed your Warrior has been redeployed to Heaven to sit on the right hand of the Supreme Commander and Chief. The Father above has Kyle in his arms and will give him peace as well as eventually easing your pain and suffering. God speed to you and Pfc. Kyle G. Bohrnsen, our HERO. We are so proud of them that are willing to sacrifice for this great Nation, THANK YOU.

To the Family and Friends of this Soldier:
I will stand in grief with this soldier's family to honor him. For every fallen HERO there is a bright star that shines in the evening sky to remind us of the cherished gift we were given – even if for too short a time.
My heart breaks again as I sign yet another guest book of another courageous young soldier who gave their life so selflessly. I wish I never found myself in a position to have to sign another guestbook for the rest of my life, but I promised Brent that neither he nor any like him would be forgotten and so I will continue until the day there is no longer the need.
We lost our son SFC Brent A. Adams on 12/1/05 and it seems like yesterday. I wish so badly there were things I could say to you right now to make the pain you are feeling go away, but I know first hand there simply are no words that will bring you the comfort and peace your heart aches for. Just know that you are not alone. My heart, thoughts, and prayers are with you all as you go through this tragedy moment by moment and as you mourn this loss.
We don't know each other, will probably never meet, but will forever be united in the loss of our Heroes. We have, unfortunately joined a group none of us wanted to join, an ever-growing group of families in this situation. May God grant you peace and strength to get through this and be able once again to smile at a memory rather than have only the tears that flow so easily now. To be so proud of your loved one and so saddened at the same time is a mix of emotions very difficult to deal with as our hearts both burst with pride and pain together.
I am sorry that I never knew your soldier personally. While they can never be replaced, neither will they ever be forgotten. You must trust that sometime, someday the loving memories you have will help to sustain you and help you go on. This courageous soldier will forever be your Angel watching over you all for the rest of your lives. It's what brings me some measure of peace and comfort and I hope it will you as well.
To his family and friends in pain, I offer this comfort: When you find yourself in that dark sorrowful place, think not only of how you will miss him, but instead recall the years, days, hours and minutes gifted to you by his presence. The one thing that cannot be taken from you is your wonderful memories that now will mean more than ever.
If you ever want to talk, I'm only an e:mail away and would love for you to tell me more about your Hero.
God Bless this soldier and family who gave all and God Bless legacy.com for setting up this site where families can so quickly share their condolences and prayers with others like themselves.
