Bo sold his antique store in Winnie to me and my friend, Maurine Gray. He was such a great guy. Enjoyed the business and personal side of him. He was professional, fair, fun and pleasant. Please know you have my deepest sympathy.

Sad to see this...brought back a memory of my parents...Pat and Betty Hogan taking us to the ranch in Winnie for a bar-b-q when I was a little girl. I thought it was the coolest place in the world. My best memory was the wagon wheel furniture. My folks loved your dad. .Prayers for your entire family.
