Not sure what to say?

Truly a wonderful, caring, kind gentleman, he is forever in my heart.

I think of you so often and know you´re in a better place, however I miss you so much. Love, Rhett

I must say that Bo was a dear friend, he always, always took the time to talk with his friends, I miss him to this day.

Bo was my supervisor when I was a court liaison officer for Harris County Probation. Very sorry to read this so late as I was thinking of my time at the department. He was a wonderful person and a joy to work with back in the early 1990's. Many blessings to his family!

My entire family is so sad to hear of Bo's passing. He was my father's best friend since childhood. Now they are together once again, up to more mischief! I use to enjoy his stays at our family home in Fort Worth, when he would come visit to attend the rodeo or just hang out with my parents. Such a nice, lovely man. The Nix family in our thoughts and prayers.

May God Bless you,

Bo was my supervisor when I was a CLO in CCL #8. He was always kind and generous with his time. I appreciated his quiet but professional demeanor. May he rest in peace and may his family know he was loved.

I only got to know Bo for a few years, back when our sons were playing Shamrock football and West University Little League baseball. I was always impressed by the way he conducted himself. He was a true gentleman and a credit to any organization he was involved with. Rest in peace Mr. Bo!

Thanks for your friendship, all the great times and the wonderful monomers over the past 45 years. You were a true blessing that came into all our lives.
A special thanks for introducing me to Fran, the love of my life! Please take her dancing in heaven.
Dan and all the Nix clan, God bless all of you. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
