Bethanny Evelyn Boehm, age 22, went home to be with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on July 29, 2020. Dear daughter of Joan and William Boehm; beloved sister of Joe (Jamie) Erdman of Oregon; Caleb Boehm and Milli Rugg of Colorado; David Erdman, who preceded her in death on January 5, 2020; and sisters, Kayla and Amanda Boehm. She is survived by grandparents LeAnn Berres, Norb and Judy Berres, Jerry and Marie Boehm, and Annalisa and Werner Reis; friend and soulmate of Dale Winter; longtime friend of Candace McCaigue, and many cherished family and other friends.
Beth had many artistic, athletic, and creative talents. From a young age, she enjoyed sewing, painting, photography, and at age 14 had the opportunity to model. She was called “Tall Girl” quite often during her short career in volleyball and basketball. That career cut short when she broke her back diving for a volleyball. She was devastated at the loss of those future dreams and struggled to find her way going forward. She loved to travel, especially with her brother, Dave and felt most at home in the big city. Her favorite was New York because Beth had a passion for fashion!! Denver, Philadelphia, Chicago and Nashville - she found something to love and enjoy in them all. She was especially fond of her hairless dog, Chewy. who kept her busy most days while she was trying to paint and create. She was a loving and memorable old soul and deep thinker and leaves this earth with a big part of all of our hearts and whom our souls miss incredibly much already. We praise God she has reunited with Him on the streets of gold and is in the companionship of her brother, Dave and the family and many young friends who were also taken too soon in the past few years. Hug each other a bit tighter!!
Thank you to all of you for the incredible outpouring of love and support for our family! We cherish each and every one of you.
Visitation will be held Tuesday, August 4, 2020, at Schmidt and Bartelt Funeral Home, N84 W17937 Menomonee Ave., in Menomonee Falls, from 4-7 pm.
