Gary Bohna Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Gary served in the United States Marine Corps during the Vietnam War as a Corporal and was very proud to serve his country.
He worked as Foreman/Lineman for Pacific Power and Light, where he retired. Then later, he went to work for ILB.
Gary was a member of the Elks Lodge. He enjoyed spending his time hunting, fishing, boating, and shooting guns. His passion was working on his 74 Ford Truck, which he restored after he retired, some would call it an obsession.
He is survived by his two sons, Monte Lee Bohna of Philadelphia, PA and Dale Edwin Bohna of Eugene, OR; sister, Carolyn Heisel of Bend, OR; and two grandchildren. Gary is preceded in death by his parents and brother William Bohna.
A funeral service with military honors will be held Saturday, November 1, 2025, at 1:00 pm at Major Family Funeral Home in Springfield. He will be laid to rest at Pleasant Hill Pioneer Cemetery. Visit www.majorfamilyfuneralhome.com to share a memory of Gary.
