The kids are okay. I miss you a whole lot. You don't know how much you miss a person, until you don't see them anymore!!! Well your mama is okay and everybody else is okay. If you was here you would be happy with Lil Linda and Lil Marvin. They are doing very well in school. Your brother and sister are some good parents. I want to talk to you a little more to night.

Bobo, I think about you a lot. I can only image what we would be doing if you we still on earth. Coach V. once said if a person can laugh, have a deep thought and have emotions move you to tears. Man! You have had a day. I have had many days. Bobo, I think about you a lot. I love you very much. I once read that what you do for yourself dies with you but what you do for others lives forever. You have really touched many. You touched many lives so you will live forever. You are missed by many. What else can I say?

Michelle

October 27, 2005

There's a saying that God never gives us more burdens than we can bear...and if that's true, the God must think I'm very, very strong because this surely hasn't been an easy time for me. I wish there was a way you could shelter me from pain and sadness, but all I can really do is be here for you and keep you in my prayers. So I'm hanging on keeping my faith and knowing that one day we will be together again to blow out your birthday candles. Happy birthday BoBo, love forever and a day. Michelle

Uncle Bobo, I am not mad at you nomore, because u came to me on Tuesday and let me know you was Happy. I have been praying for you every night since you left. I know you are in heaven. I had a vision of you. You was in a white robe, with shining bright light, with the same smiling face and waving BYE. I am glad to know you are watching over me in heaven. I love and miss you.

Cliff Mitchell, Sr.

August 16, 2005

Bobo, we have had a lot of fond memories. Sometime we sit and laugh about events and times we had with you. I can still see your smile when you would walk through the door.

People and personalities are often hard to create as a perfect match, however, love overcomes all differences. And, we want you to know that we did and still love you. You were always welcome in our home and in our heart. We have faith that we will see you again in God's home where we will walk together in love, hand in hand.

Love you always!

Your Dad & Stepmother

I thought that I had lost my best friend, but instead you traveled to a permanent place, my heart. Leo used to always tell me (Michelle), "Till death do us apart". Well death has come, but in my heart, mind and soul, we will never be apart. I will continue to cherish every moment that we shared together, I have to admit my heart is shattered, but with each memorable thought of you it begins to mend. Until we smile face to face again. Love unconditionally, Michelle Johnson

I thought I lost my best friend only to find out that you just moved to your permanent place, my heart. BoBo, you used to always tell me (michelle), "Till death do us apart", well death has come but in my mind, heart and soul we will never be apart. I will continue to love you with all my strength and spirit. With unconditional love, until we can smile face to face again, Michelle

Bobo, I will miss you very much. I remember all of the great times we had together growing up. I can not tell all of the stories we shared together. You taught me to be my own person and I will always love you and miss you. These two pieces of advice has carried me a long way in life " just because one says no that does not mean the next one will" and " toughness comes from within the size does not matter" This advice has allowed me to sucessful in life. I want to thank you for all of the memories. You are my brother and best friend.

If you continue to comfort and love each other, you can begin soothing the hurt; TIME will be your friend. Laugh about the funny moments and talk about the memorable moments. Cry, but not like there's no HOPE. It's even O.K. to be angry, at times. Smile, when you think about what you'll say to BO-BO when you see him again. Know that we are asking God's PEACE and COMFORT for the family because God is The Great Comforter.

We love you all,

Carol (Mitchell) Moncriffe & Family

It was sad for me to hear that BoBo passed away. It has been years since I last seen him and I can still remember him teasing me. I know he is in a better place. C.W. and the rest of the Mitchell family, I send my deepest sympathy for your loss and pray God's grace and comfort in each of your lives.

I will miss BOBO with all my heart; my deepest sympathy to the Mitchell family...I am glad I got to talk to BOBO very recently before he left this life...I guess GOD wanted us to talk and say goodbye to each other before HE called him HOME; we just didn't know it was going to be our last conversation, but we will meet again, and there will be no more sorrow, and we will welcome each other once again with open arms!

BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO MOURN, FOR THEY SHALL BE COMFORTED...BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS, FOR THEY SHALL BE CALLED THE SONS OF GOD.

To Aunt Peggy, Uncle Cliff Sr., Linda, Cliff Jr., Marvin and Veronica:

As you know, I am still grieving the death of a WONDERFUL woman, my Mom. I know it's hard and you think the pain will never stop but with time your heart will heal. The death of a love one is so hard but the fond memories will last forever.

I love you all and if there is anything I can do, please do not hesitate to call.
