It is with sadness that I share the passing of a good friend that positively touched many folks' lives. After a long and courageous battle with recent health issues, Wayne Bowen Weems peacefully passed away December 19th at Methodist Hospital in San Antonio. A memorial service will be planned after the holidays and I will share more with everyone, as I hear plans from his family.
Rest in Peace my dear friend, and Godspeed

Bo's wife Jean is asking that in lieu of flowers or the like, that donations be made to the Texas State Rifle Association Youth Program in memory of him instead.
There is now a link to donate to the TSRA Youth Program in memory of Bowen. It can be accessed through any of the "Click here to Donate" links on the TSRA website. Once you click on that link, the top most selection specifically says: "Donation to Youth Program in Memory of Wayne Bowen Weems". When the user clicks on that it'll allow anyone to donate via a secured connection whatever amount they desire. Link is below:

As he was often seen coaching and working with youth at pistol and rifle competitions, I believe this will help extend Bo's legacy and he would be proud to have donations made to this program in his memory.
Thanks much,
