Gulliver Boland, born 3/15/91-Died 10/14/05 Son of Dale Allen Boland
and Gary Boland.  Beloved brother of Marielle, Carly, and Sylvie
Boland; grandson of Rita and Sherwin Allen; cousin and nephew to many

In his short life, Gulliver made many friends at Oxford and King
Schools in Berkeley, Archway School in Oakland, and the JCHS in San
Francisco.

Gulliver leaves behind two cherished "brothers:" Jeremiah, the best
mentor any teen could hope for, and  Max, the most loyal and loving
dog any boy ever had.

Gulliver loved the outdoors.  He was a member of Piedmont Boy Scout
Troop 15, and a graduate of the Tilden Park Junior Rangers.

Despite the difficulties he faced in his last year, Gulliver reached
out to help other teens, and brought delight to many young children
as  a counselor at MonkeyBusiness Summer Camp.

Gulliver was a proud member of the Republican Party who looked
forward  to serving his country.

Gulliver was admired by his teachers and classmates for his
intelligence, humility, kindness and humor.
