Not sure what to say?

I still miss talking with Bo at MVP where we seemed to have similar workout schedules. Hope his sons are doing well.

I miss the funny stories and the laser light he would shine on me from his basement when I was going to work early in the morning. He was the best!

We are so saddened of Bo´s passing. We were neighbors years ago in New Hampshire. You are all in our prayers.

Hello Dion family,
I am so sorry I am just now learning of this. I ran into Bo downtown about 4 years ago; he was just coming from the gym and was positively glowing. He told me he’d finally retired and he seemed so happy. I am so glad he got to experience that freedom—how limited it must be compared to the heavenly freedom he has now! I will always remember his warm smile, welcoming presence and great sense of humor. My prayers are with you all.

Gary, or Bo as he was known at MVP will be greatly missed. He was Mr Hospitality at MVP. He knew everyone by name and we all considered him a friend. I first met Bo when we realized he knew my grandson, Carson, from sports camp at Grand Valley. I couldn't believe he volunteered at this camp that I heard such great things about. We have been friends ever since. I can't imagine MVP without him. To his wife and children, you have my sympathy. He was a special man. May God comfort you...

Rest in peace Bo. You were a role model for many ,myself included. A great father, husband, friend, sibling, and best of all, cousin in law. That service was a perfect tribute to a wonderful man. We are still in disbelief that you are gone. Brad you have never ceased to amaze me, what a great eulogy. We are keeping you all in our prayers. May the effect on all those that Bo's life touched be of some comfort to help through this horrible tragedy. With love and sadness, Jim Miles and family

Monica and I got to know Bo through our Brother-in-law Dave and the rest of the Dion’s . Bo was a reflection of such a wonderful, fun loving, living life to the fullest family. I can honestly say that the times we were around Bo I think I can agree, his smile was contagious and you knew he enjoyed life to the fullest. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you and to you Dave, your eulogy honoring your brother was absolutely beautiful and Brad did a wonderful tribute too his dad as well....

I will miss his silly "dad jokes" and infectious happiness. He was never without a smile and always laughing!
