    • Todd, Lisa, and Travis Boylen, our deepest sympathy. He wasn’t just a cousin to Todd, he was a great friend, and they did a lot of things together, even worked together. He will be sadly missed. Love always

  1. So sad to be reading this. My condolences to Jodie and Jennifer on the loss of their brother. Condolences to Lonnie’s own family as well. May God’s grace carry you all through the days ahead.

  2. Dearest Boylen Family,
    I am very sorry for the loss of your father and brother. He was a great man, none finer. He also was my sweet cousin and good neighbor. I enjoyed his company and wise advice. He will be missed always, but I know that he is in heaven with God now and happy to be reunited with his father and mother.
    With Sympathy and Love,
    Mindi

  3. I’m very sorry for the loss and feelings of grief the family of Leo “Lonnie” Boylen must surely feel at this time. I didn’t get to know him very long but I could tell he was a very nice, kind man. I’m grateful I did meet him and hear some of his stories about his life. I’m sure he’s at rest and peace now with the Good Lord above. God bless him and all of his family here.
