It was great knowing Mr Boothe. He was wonderful as one of my Scout leaders, and I did my best not to disappoint him and the other leaders. He cared a lot about us all and wanted us all to turn into outstanding young men. I enjoyed my scouting years with Mr Boothe and his sons. Sorry your loss.

Dad and Mom (and my 3 crazy brothers) took me in as a part of their family, when I was 13 years old. Dad, you have laughed with (and at) me, consoled me when I was sad, given me the right advice when I needed it most, and taught me sooo much about life, but most of all, you loved me like I was your own ALWAYS, I love and miss you like crazy, my DAD, my FRIEND, my HERO!

I will never forget what a good thing
being a boy scout was back in my younger days and what a big part Mr. Boothe played. A great scout master, He and his sons Clifton and Richard were well liked in our troop 664. I enjoyed taking my sons up to Goofy Golf and the batting cage and getting to visit with Mr. Boothe when he was there. I'm glad to have met him.
Our sincere condolences to the Boothe family from the Forsters.
