About my Brother Robert (Bo)
Bo was born on September 2nd 1973. Child number 2 out of 4, My mom's four leaf clover, He was quite the character. He was
very protected of his 2 younger sister's. He was someone you wouldn't just forget about after meeting him. He had a way of
leaving a presense around. He was murdered on October 14, 1998. Bo would have been 33 this year. Bo was a very loving person.
Many people, he has helped because he have given his last cent to them. Bo was taken from us for no reason or cause. Along
with our cousin Brian Reeves. We don't know the whole story behind my brother's death, or my cousin's but we miss you Bo,
with all our heart and soul. Never a day goes by that we don't think about you.
Bo's job at Western Kentucky Navigation
Robert worked for Western Kentucky Navigation since he turned 18 years of age, before his death. He was studying for his
Pilot's licences. The people of Western Kentucky Navigation gave my parents money for a stone. My dad put on the stone, In
Loving Memory of Bo Reynolds September 2, 1973 October 14, 1998 and at the bottom Western Kentucky Navigation. The people
there loved and cherished Bo so much. Many of them left there job to be at the funeral, some where in Chicago at the time.
If any ever see this page, I want to say thank you very much, it meant a lot to our family.

Bo's Joys
Bo loved his truck. A 94 Chevy, which took him to his job and back. That was his pride and joy. Now my dad has it. Dad
tries his best to take care of Bo's truck the way Bo would have liked. Along with other things that belonged to Bo. Bo's house
(where he was killed along with my cousin) was taken back from the bank, honestly I'm glad they took it back. Bo also liked
to have fun. Always out having fun on his days off. He had a good saying "Live each day to the fullest because you never know
what's around the corner". I never knew the true meaning to that until that night. Also Bo loved his niece's and nephew very
much. His niece Shelby is 10 now and in the 4th grade, Tara Michelle is going on 5, she doesn't look like my dad that much
anymore.
Here is a poem, that my mom (Nancy) wrote for Robert.
In Memory Of My Son
In the heart of a loving mom
that reaches out to touch her son
And dreams that are so real,
that takes a heart to heal.
We always had lots of love
and we had lots of good times and bad times
when times come to an end, We will walk hand and hand in that beautiful land.
And there our Lord will always be
here you can always see.
You will always be my guardian Angel,
That keeps me out of danger.
My son is a guiding light that glows in the night. I know your alright.
My heart hurts day and night,
when I see your face in the light.
In the end when we are all gone
That's when God takes us home.
In Memory of Bo
by: Nancy ( your mom )
I also wrote a poem,
My Brother
Growing up, We wouldn't get along.
We aways fought, and say that the other didn't belong.
Years went by and we grew up, You left first to make a life.
I also left to see what was out there in the world.
We didn't see each other much and we hardly talked on the phone.
I always thought we would never be alone.
We had a bond, that no one could break.
Until that horrible night, when I got that call.
I was told that someone took your life.
And I thought, I would never see you again.
My brother, you will always be with me.
And I know that now, that I will never be alone.
