To the family of the late Herbert "BO" Middleton, my former classmate:
John 16:22 "I will see you again and your heart shall rejoice". Bo has always been one of the most friendliest person and I've know him since high school. I know Bo is rejoicing right now. I can see him marching, ushering and shouting up and down the King's highway,"Tell me how did you feel when you came out of the wilderness". Bo has got a story to tell about how he made it over. Cherish the memories family and know that he's in better place. He's gone to that place that he always spoke and sang about.

As God makes no mistake he was looking over his garden in heaven he saw that he was in need of a good usher bus driver leader and he so bo Middleton limbs getting weaker and eyes dimmer footsteps shorter and said Bo come on home your family loves you down there but I love you more. Middleton family look to God for your help and strength in the days to come. Oh how do you feel when you come out the wilderness leaning on the Lord

Pamela Gordon

To Vel & the entire Middleton family,
"Bo" will be missed but remember "to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord" and Bo would have it no other way. "Bo" is up there now marching with the ushers and singing his favorite song "How did you feel when you come out of the Wilderness". Nobody would sing and shot like Bo. If God received anyone with open arms, it would be Bo. Bo was a man that was after God's own heart. Bo was a friend to all and not only in our communtiy.Bo was well known by all. One of the best bus driver and friend to all mankind. He's in God's care now so remember the good times. I can hear Bo right now talking about His God, his Daddy, his Mama and his Dorothy gone on before Him.
