Patrick M. Bohn

Buzzy, Jeremiah, and Amy,
I realize that I might be a little slow on writing you, but I was thinking about Pat and need to say something to you all.
Even though Lenny is my dad, I considered Pat to be my father. He was always around when I needed him. He was more than happy to tell me I was being stupid, and I loved him for it. Even after so much time, I can hardly think about him without coming to tears.
The world lost one of the best people when it lost Pat.

Bohn Family,

I was extremely sad to hear of your loss, as I was the first Minneapolis Police officer to arrive at the accident scene. Everyone from police, fire, and ambulance put everything we had into trying to save Patrick. I'm sorry that it wasn't enough, but trust that Patrick is now in a better place.

Pat was my student in Interpersonal Communication in the Urban Teacher Education Program at MCTC. He was earnest and vulnerable and funny and determined all swirled together. He always spoke so lovingly of his family and of his bond and loyalty to the Boy Scouts, to his roots and to our country.
I wish him well on his eternal journey.

My deepest sympathies go out to Pat's family. I worked with Pat at Superior. He was a very good inspiration to me. He was very dedicated to his goals and pushed himself to reach them. His new career brought him great happiness. He will be missed.

I attended Augsburg with Pat for the past 3 years. I remember he was in my first class there. It was his first class as well. He has been one of the friendliest people I have met while attending Augsburg. We sat next each other in most of our classes together, which were many. I just finished class with him this spring. I will miss his smiling face around campus.

Pat and I used to ride to and from work together. I was suprised to find out of his death. One of the things I remember most about Pat was, he was very opinionated and would always spark very engaging conversations. I appreciated his help the times we carpooled, and at work where he would freely share his knowledge and years of experience with me to help me when I transitioned onto his shift and into a new department. He'll be missed. While I reflect on his life, my thoughts and prayers are...

Buzzy and Jerimiah,
Words cannot express how saddened our family is to find out about the death of your husband and father. We will continue to pray for all of you to get through these times. The Laskowski family

Pat, if you only knew how many people you touched and made feel important. You are a great person with a heart bigger then this world. You taught me how to be a man, you taught me so many things throught my life. You helped shape me into the person I am today. I wish we had more time to share in this life, but rest assured we will meet again!
You will always be in my memories!
