We remember Gene Hoyt Boland, whose spirit departed from us on November 1st, 2024, after a brief battle with pancreatic cancer.
Genes humor, kindness, and fun-loving demeanor will be missed by those fortunate enough to have known him. Gene was born on June 25, 1941 to Hoyt Astor Boland and Rebecca Koon Boland in Prosperity, South Carolina. Gene graduated from Mid- Carolina High School in 1959, which was the first graduating class. He attended Clemson University and played football for the Tigers before moving to Northern Virginia, attending American University, and working for the CIA until retirement. He loved sports and was very involved with all of his children and grand children's sporting events. In 2002, Gene retired and returned to Chapin, South Carolina, where he loved his house in the woods, Bonsai plants, bird watching, gardening and crossword puzzles.
He is survived by his wife, Gretchen, his daughter Jennifer Gilley, son Andrew Boland and grandchildren Kaitlyn Gilley, Nathan Gilley and Sarah Gilley.
