Mr. Henry Michael Bohmann, 74 years of Humboldt, SK passed away on Tuesday, July 12, 2011 at Humboldt District Hospital. Henry was born on July 19, 1936 in the Annaheim district to William and Bertha (nee Kunz) Bohmann. He grew up on a farm in the Annaheim area and attended Bunker Hill School. Henry began his working career with Alvin Stumborg, cutting brush. He went on to work for the Department of Highways for a number of years. He enjoyed working on road construction so moved on to Kirsch Construction where he eventually became foreman. He finished his working years with Anderson Rental and Paving. Throughout his working years, Humboldt was his home, although he was often away for much of the construction season. On November 6, 1965, Henry married Katherine "Katy" Yager. They were blessed with two children, Todd and Kim. Henry was a people person, he enjoyed visiting with people and through his work, knew people all over the province. He was a huge sports fan, always cheering on his favourite teams - the Humboldt Broncos, Toronto Blue Jays and of course, the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Henry kept abreast of what was happening in the world by reading, watching the news and listening to News Talk Radio, especially John Gormley. He also enjoyed a good game of cards with family or friends and in later years when he had more time, he became quite adept at gardening. Although his family didn't all live close by, he kept in close contact with them, often talking to them daily. Henry was proud to be called "Grandpa" and enjoyed visits with his two grandsons. Due to failing health, Henry became a resident of St. Mary's Villa in July 2010, where he has lived until the present. Henry will be lovingly remembered and sadly missed by his two children and two grandchildren: Todd (Donetta) Bohmann of Saskatoon and Kim (Keith) Lueke and sons, Nicholas and Dustin of Edmonton; two sisters and two brothers: Bernadette Szautner of Humboldt, Tony (Betty) Bohmann and Linda (Art) Bley, all of Saskatoon, and Ben (Peggy) Bohmann of Choiceland; sister-in-law, Theresa Bohmann of Prince Albert; and numerous nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents, William and Bertha Bohmann; wife Katy Bohmann; three brothers, Lawrence, Albert and Harold; and a sister in infancy, Anne.
