Patriot Pawn & Gun and the Joye family is grateful to donate the 1st Prize Winchester Model 94 John Wayne Commemorative Rifle in partnership with the Doerty Family of Star, Idaho and to lead this fundraising effort. Deputy Tobin Bolter was a customer and we spoke several times. I remember Tobin’s smile and his good spirit. I remember thinking “Wow, Ada County is getting great laterals/recruits. This guy is awesome. He’s exactly what you hope for in a local LEO.” He represents the best of us. To Abbey, our hearts break for you. We pray for your peace and healing and we pray for your unborn Child. We honor your husband’s memory. He was a good man.
