(Debby) Boomershine, his daughters Amy (Mark) Cline, and Annette (Randy) Dwire, his sister Marion Lee (Eugene) Hogg, 4 grandchildren Justin (Stacy) Cline, Zachary (Lindsey) Cline, Hillary (Steven) Dursch, and Heather Dwire, and 4 great grandchildren, Ethan, Greyson, Lila, and Piper Cline.  There will be a memorial service on Thursday, June 30, 2016 at Slifer's Presbyterian Church, 2999 S.
