When was it . . . 1983(?) when you and Jerry came to North Broward to visit a client?
You signed into the visitors log, looked up at me and with the biggest smile said:
"Well Hey Cuz! How are you today?" I had no clue until I looked at the log and saw our last names were the same. I always enjoyed your visits because you and Jerry were always so bright and cheerful. You always cracking jokes and keeping the mood light. You made many a boring night more pleasurable. Always the gentleman and dressed to kill. You and Jerry have both preceded me to that place in the clouds I hear tell about. I would like to think that you and Jerry are up there trying to get a break Florida some of those who went to `The Other Place´! Ha! Always your friend, Captain William Hitchcock, Broward Sheriff´s Office/retired.

I met Bo in 1977, he helped me out on a case.
We remained friends since. Every time I would travel back to the Ft Lauderdale area, I would stop by to say hello.
Keep blowing square bubbles.
Rest in peace.

Bo, Well, another OHS class of 1964 reunion coming up in November. I missed your presence at the last one and I am sure at this one, as did and will many others. Your heart-felt smile was a beacon of joy and love. Sadly, last year in April 20, my son Dan, dad of my granddaugther Leandra and husband of Sandra, passed away. He too was a fine example of a great human being and for both of you, mentors and great friends.
My beautiful captures of flying in the skies I hope they bring pleasure to your enjoyment

I was the first person Bo met when he moved to FLorida. I was coming out of the Unin of Miami hitch hiking and he picked me up.
We lived together and traveled around. He was my Best friend and taught me so much. I realize now at 63 i have his laugh.
I think about him much.

Bo: Well, it's been about a year now and I just want you to know that every time I pass by the location in Key Largo of the last photo shoot that we did together, I think of you. Since I am on the water a lot, I think of you often. Actually, I can see the mangrove shoreline from my home. Jeeze, I miss not being able to talk with you directly.
It is amazing to read all of the previous entrys about other people's interactions with you and then consider that you always had time to get together, grab a bite, show me your latest photograpy adventure and venture out to a club, etc.
You sir, lived life to its fullest. I miss you deeply.

Uncle Bo, you will forever be remembered in my heart. I miss you so much and I wish that you were still here. I regret not getting the chance to say goodbye. I may shed a tear or two, but when I remember you, i mainly smile. You were adored by many and still are. I wear "crazy socks" once in a while, in memory of you. I love you forever and always.

Bo was referred to me by Ritchie Coren - and I am grateful. My wife and I will always remember his smile, how everyone in the courts loved him, his Corvettes, the thousands of keys he collected that lined the walls of his offices, and the class he exuded. His stories of Rio (yes, *the* Rio) and what a city it is were as colorful as every other aspect of his life, a truly unique guy. When you can life your life and leave the kind of impact on people that post messages as seen here, you've really accomplished something. I will always think of you fondly, always regret I did not know you were ill, but be grateful for just having met you, Bo. For all the courts, judges and defendants you are now serving above, I hope they know what a prize they have received. I urge the host of this Guest Book to allow this to remain online long past 2013, Bo is a man who should have this stand forever. With best wishes for your friends and family who miss you so terribly, as do we, Bo - thank you!

Hi Bo! I know that instead of flowers or donations you wanted us to help some young person on their path to greatness. So we've established a scholarship to Art Camp for an aspiring artist who may not have the means to attend our summer program. Each year The R.H. Bo Hitchcock Scholarship will be awarded in your honor. I will make sure these lucky kids know your amazing story. Big Love Buddy, Cappy

I have never met a man that was so passionate about life and the things you did. You truly lived life to the fullest. You have always been there for me and have been a true and life long friend, back to the days of Club Dallas in the 80's. I was lucky enough to see you up in Martin County Court not too long ago, and I thank God I was able to spend some time with you and meet my son. My heart is broke and I will miss you dearly. Life will never be the same without you, but we will meet again. My condolences to the family and especially Gerry who I know is suffering a great loss.

Bo, we all know you in Court. But out of court? The kindness, the originality and the experiences - a nine hour flight to Panama City (Who knew we were going by Hitchcock Airlines?),the looking for gas from 9000 feet? the borrowing of a light from a plane under repair, the all points bulletin because we were "slightly off course" due to a surprise storm and the "reassuring"priceless comment that the guages never work right when in the vicinity of an airport so don't worry. Only you could have made that trip hilarious and a life long memory. And the surprise truly artistic talent. You will be missed by so many but remembered with such pure delight that we knew you.

I was lucky enough to meet this once-in-a-lifetime personality at North Carolina, where we forged one of his many lifetime friendships. Bo's gusto for life and his generosity to others was already evident. And as we shared our passion for Carolina basketball, politics, and fun, up until the very last week, I feel privileged to have known him so long and to have seen his fabulous growth not only as an multi-faceted artist but as a professional and a man of great compassion and integrity. We will always love you, Bo. And I know you have some great stories for St. Peter-- like the time you got everyone off a Trailways stranded on the interstate by a huge blizard, and mustered a great and hilarious snowball fight among people who had been strangers before they were radiated with the Bo Smile. No one outlived or outloved you, Bo. You were a life force that broke down all barriers and showed people how to embrace the good stuff--beauty and mirth--all around us in our families, friends, and fellow man. It's so wonderful that we had the chance to party with you in your fabulous "wake" week last month. It was, as you told me, "an incredible ego trip," but nothing compared to the journey of your amazing life. I am grateful to have traveled part of that trip with you. God bless your family and the thousands of friends you made, and in whose hearts you will always remain. Love ya, man.

"Do not fear death so much but rather the inadequate life." -Bertolt Brecht
Bo understood the meaning of life better than anyone I have known or studied. His incredible zest for life and flawless commitment to humanity were only a couple of his qualities that went unmatched. He is my best friend and my mentor. Let his values act vicariously through those whom he has touched.
The reason why it hurts so much to separate, is because our souls are connected. I will see you in our next life. Love to you Uncle Bo.

I met him last March at his home and I spent about an hour with him. Now that was one hour I will never forget. He shared his very precious time with me, he was one remarkable individual. Although he was the one suffering from cancer he was actually consoling me. If he is any reflection of his family, then I am sure those are some Awesome individuals. My prayers go out to all his friends and family.

I remember when I was a new lawyer in 1998 and I met Bo in the courthouse. He couldn't have been nicer and made me feel very comfortable. He never met anyone he didn't try to be friends with. He walked through life with such a great attitude. Everyone who knew him will always remember him for his kind heart. He was also a great lawyer. Juries loved him! I would like for his family to know that Bo was loved by many and he lived life to its fullest. God Bless him and his loved ones left behind.

Bo will live on in so many lives, especially mine. I met Bo, when he first moved to florida. He came to rent office space in a small building next to the courthouse "lawyers building" where I was the office manager and secretary to all the tenants. he came with one client. I saw his magnetic personality and knew he was going to be the best! We had a lot of walk in clients being so close to the courthouse and with a bail bond agency in the building. He grew fast and furious and I was glad to see that happen and be a part of it. Bo made everyone feel special. He was like no other. He brightened up every day always happy, always positive, always smiling, always thinking how he could strive to be better, which was a natural for him. He had a natural touch for beauty, and he had beauty within him all the way through. To the very end Bo had a light in him that shone so brightly, and was appreciative for all he was able to accomplish and do. I selfishly will miss him terribly. but I can tell you, he definitely is out there someplace shining on others that need him. Love ya Bo, you were and still are special special man... always.....
