I have so many memories of Bo! But I will always remember him with a smile and the love for his family!
Thank God for Bo. The Lord used Bo greatly. I will never forget him pointing his crooked finger at me and saying “You ain’t no more saved than them rocks on the ground and you are gonna go to Hell if you die” . After being mad at him for about 12 hours because he said I wasn’t saved and was on my way to Hell. The Lord opened my eyes to the fact that ole Bo was right …I WAS lost….. I got on my knees and asked God to save me that night. I will always be thankful for that stubborn ole man who wouldn’t back down and was not afraid to love me and my family enough to tell me I was living a lie and needed salvation. God used Bo in my life and many many others. It will be a glad day when we see him again in glory. I am sure we will find him somewhere by the mandolin pickin grinnin ear to ear.
Love you Bo. Won’t forget you.
We are very sorry to hear about the passing of Bo. He was such a hard worker and good man. We will keep you all in our prayers.
When talk to text came out Bo couldnt believe it so he said in my phone Ill be thete in a min buddy” , and it texted “Im getting my hair braided” . He joked about the whole rest of the day that he was going to get his hair braided. See you in heaven Bo !
When my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to The Rock that is higher than I. Psalm 61:2.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
I am so sad he is gone. I love you Uncle Bo
Just learning this. Sorry to hear of Bo’s passing but thankful Bo was saved. He was always so kind to us. That has never been nor will ever be forgotten. Bo will always be remembered as a good Christian man who loved the Lord and had such a kind heart towards people. Jimmy and I will be praying for continued strength and comfort for Margie and their Kids and Grandkids. Candice P.
