Visitation will be held at Callaway-Jones in Bryan, Texas on Thursday, January 26, 2023, from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. The memorial service will be held on Friday, January 27, 2023 at 10:00 a.m. at the Callaway-Jones Funeral Center.

Bo was born on November 22, 1941 in Galveston, Texas to Bertha Josephine Peterson Oehlert and Frederick Bauman Oehlert.

He attended schools in Alta Loma and Alvin, Texas where he graduated in 1960. After high school, he attended Alvin Community College and the University of Houston. He married his high school sweetheart Sharon Frazier in 1962, and they celebrated 58 years of marriage until her passing in 2019.

Bo went on to have a 35-year career as an instrumentation electrician, working at Monsanto Chemical plant at Chocolate Bayou. After retiring, while still living in Alvin, Bo enjoyed visiting friends and working on small engines. He and Sharon later moved to Bryan, Texas in 2007. He loved spending time with his three children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. 

Bo’s greatest passion was fishing — from his early years in Galveston until most recently at Sam Rayburn, where this past November he enjoyed his last fishing trip with his children and grandsons.

He was preceded in death by his wife of 58 years, Sharon Oehlert; parents Bertha Oehlert and Frederick Oehlert; his only brother, Charles Oehlert; and grandson, Michael Ryne Oehlert.

Bo leaves behind his sons Michael Alan Oehlert and wife, Cathy; Gary Wayne Oehlert and wife, Kathy; and daughter Tanya Kay Oehlert Skinner and husband, Sam. Bo was blessed with eighteen grandchildren and fifteen great-grandchildren. He also leaves behind his beloved Bassett Hound Gus.
