Bo was a great friend and one you could count on to be there for you. He was there when my husband was saved and told Howard, "I've got the baptistry water warming for you". We will miss him. Love to all his family.

Robbie & Walker family,
There are no words to describe how much we loved Bo. We will miss him, but we know that he's smiling down on us. Didn't make our fishin' trip but I know he's holding a spot in heaven. We love you and will be praying for the family.
