Pat & Amy -
I cannot express how sorry I am to hear of your loss. My Mom (Karen Coughlin) loved Jim and you guys dearly. He was an incredible mentor to her, an inspiration to my brother and a remarkable person.
He will live on through you and in our hearts always. Love, Corrie

Amy, I was never privileged enough to meet your father, but I always knew he was a wonderful person by the stories you told me. The funniest of all is the lady who called and asked for "Jimbo Hanon." He obviously touched the lives of many, and I know you will miss him greatly. You and your mother are in my thoughts and prayers daily.

Dear Mrs. Bohanon, Amy and Bill,

I am sorry to hear of the loss of Mr. Bohanon. I met him only a coupple of times while Amy and I were in high school together in CA. But even in those few times I can remember being struck by his confidence and warmth. He was very personable and inspired my immediate respect. I also remember his great laugh. He seemed to really enjoy his family and his life.

Our family will remember him (and you all) in our prayers. We will pray...

Dearest Pat,
We can't express enough our heartfelt sorrow over Jim's passing. We feel so blessed to have known him, and like so many, as we have read here, felt he was such a special person to have been able to be friends with. What a kind, gentle and selfless person he was, and will be so greatly missed. We have kept you in our prayers always and you will remain. Frankie Carl gets a hug every day as I remind her how lucky we are to have her because of you and Jim. With so many tears...

Dear Pat and Amy:
We hold you both in our hearts and continue to pray for peace and solace at this time. Your loss is felt here and we wish you all great hope at this time. May God bless you and gently hold David in his arms.
Patrick, Margaret, and Megan

Dear Pat and Amy
It was my privilege to have none Jim. He was a true inspiration to me. I will never forget the first dove hunt and the many poker lessons I learned from him. He was a man with a true and loving heart for family and anyone he can in contact with. I'm blesses and thankful that he was apart of my life. If I could say anything to Jim it would be thank you for the memorys and life's lessons.

Pat and Amy,
I was sorry to hear of Mr. Bohanon’s passing. I will never forget the first time that I was to meet him, I was a nervous wreck. Amy didn’t help with the threat that it was all held in the balance of a firm handshake. We practiced on our drive out to Simpsonville, and when all was said and done, I think I passed the test. My hand may have been sweaty but I delivered a firm handshake! After knowing him I can honestly say all that pressure was for nothing, he truly was a...

Pat and Amy, How honored I am to have known Jim Bohanon. As a kid growing up in Plano, Texas Mr. Bohanon always gave me encouraging words when things were tough. He would give me inspiration evertime he beat me in a game of HORSE in his driveway or shoot better than me on our numerous dove hunts. He will always have a very special place in my heart. Please know you and Amy are in my thoughts and prayers at this most trying time. We all will miss him greatly.
