Survivors include his children, William Nixon of San Francisco, and Kate Whittaker and husband Cameron of Columbia, and grandchildren Emma Reinkemeyer and Ryder William Whittaker. He also leaves siblings Richard Nixon and Diane Chancellor, both of Columbia. Bouy was an avid golfer and over his lifetime had SIX holes in one. He was passionate about his friends, family, the Carndinals and the outdoors. None of which he ever took for granted.
