To the Reed family, I extend my condolence. If you can imagine the time when Bo will be resurrected back to life on earth where there will be no more old age, sickness or having to worry about dying again, then you have a glimpse of what life will be like under God's Kingdom that we pray for when saying the "Lord's Prayer." To verify this promise in your Bible, read Isaiah twenty-six nineteen, Job thirty-three twenty-five, Isaiah thirty-three twenty-four, Isaiah twenty-five eight and Matthew six ten. We can put our faith and confidence in these promises because we know God does not lie as stated at Numbers twenty-three nineteen. To learn more about the hope for our dead loved ones, visit jw. org. and search for that topic.

Wishing you strength during this difficult time. I remember Bo as being so welcoming and kind. Also, he could tell a tall tale - and have you gripping every word. Kind Regards, Mary (Machocky) Sladecek

i am thankful to have been a classmate and friend of Bo. He and Beverly will always have a special place in my heart for taking care of Gregg Thompson. May the Good Lord give you all comfort and strength as you cope with this great loss.

Thank you all for your support and help through this all. It's going to be tough without him, especially since he meant so much to so many people. For people looking for a charity or other foundation to donate to in lieu of flowers, please consider The Cancer Center of Southeast Texas http://www.bhset.net/Giving-Volunteering/Baptist-Hospitals-of-Southeast-Texas-Foundation.aspx or The American Heart Association https://donatenow.heart.org/?s_src=EOY_14&s_subsrc=HPwidget The thing he would probably like the most though, is if you would just go down the street and visit with your neighbor and see if they needed help with anything. Just think about him a little while doing it. Thanks, Daniel R.
