Infantryman Bohall, who joined the Army in 2005 was assigned to the 4th Battalion, 101st Aviation Regiment, 159th Combat Aviation Brigade, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), Fort Campbell, KY in 2008. Along with five other soldiers in his unit, Bohall died May 26, 2011 in Spin Boldak, Kandahar province, Afghanistan, of wounds sustained when insurgents attacked his unit with an improvised explosive device. Bohall had earned several decorations and awards and served in missions in Afghanistan and Iraq. Sgt. Bohall’s survivors include his wife, Jessica, and daughter, Annabelle, both of Essington, PA, as well as his parents Tim and Marla Bohall, and Lorna Geist of Bel Aire, KS.
Caddy For A Cure CEO and program founder Russ Holden said “We are so grateful to Liberty Mutual Insurance for enabling us to host an event where our guests can enjoy the great game of golf while helping others in the process. We are especially honored to have the opportunity to recognize Sgt. Bohall, along with a group of combat wounded veterans and Fanconi anemia patients that we are bringing in to enjoy the day.” He continued, “Although fundraising is our primary goal for the tournament, this is an especially unique event because of our experience in professional golf. We include many special features to the day that you don’t find at most charity events and dare to say our event rivals anything in the country. It’s a wonderful day for our guests at the Parkland Golf Club, excellent exposure for our sponsors and provides financial assistance and support to many in need.”
