Sgt Boehm, it was a great pleasure to work with you. I will truly miss our debates on the better team, Caps or Pens. Rock Creek will never be the same. I feel there is so much more to say, yet I am at a loss for words. You will be forever in my heart.
Rest in Peace Boehm.

Over the years I have seen your name listed many places. When we worked together at District 1 I knew I had someone I could count on if I needed anything. As a Sergeant I owuld see it listed on the Aviation detail and know that if I or one of the troops I was responsible got hurt we would be in great hands. You left the aviation unit to get back to the streets and I remember us talking about it and you wanted to be in a position where you could make a difference for the young officers coming on the job, teach them right and be an example. As a Lt. I would see your name on the detail and know that I had no worries in District 3, because you were there. All of these years I have known as a friend I could call and if it was in your power to help it was mine. Last May when I sat with your wife at the hospital after the first heart attack I did not know what to say. The paraedics that got you back had worked non stop all of the way to the hospital and after a week or so you were back among us. When you came back to work I was so happy for you because I knew you were doing what you loved. To hear this news last night it rocked all of our worlds. It was the first time that seeing your name on something did not bring me comfort but sadness. I still can not believe it is true, but alas it is. I am honored to have worked beside you, to be able to say you were a friend and proud of the legacy you leave behind in both your officers and your young son. We will miss you.

May god watch over you and your family both at home and work and kep them all safe.

Michael, it's been years since we shared an office together as sergeants in the "Creek". I appreciated your good sense of humor and your professionalism. I was sickened yesterday when I got the phone call from DC of your passing.


To the Boehm family and his many friends, my condolences.

Mike, I know you'll be watching down on us and protecting all the members of law enforcement family along with those you’ve left behind with the United States Park Police.

Rest in peace my brother
