To Byron Sr., Bootsy, Boomies children, family and friends. I wish to express my sincere condolences.
Boomie was gentle soul. So much self taught talent and skills.
The loss of Boomie is deep to the core. Born and raised in Waldo, Boomie was OURS. When one weep in Waldo, we all weep. God Bless Waldo and the local communities that Boomie touched.
Let us pray for peace, healing, and comfort.

Boomie it's still so unbelievable that you are gone. But I know you will forever look down on Us all from Heaven. You had so much talent and so much love for family time. You had a passion for giving back and making things possible for others. Many looked up to you for your humbleness and all your good for the community.
We will all miss you so much and your Legacy will forever live on in your children, may GOD Strength Us All.
Rest in Heaven Boomie.
