RIP. Mr Shipp. Another shining light from the greatest generation in the heavens above. You will be missed but not forgotten. The Alvarez Family

What a joy it was to know this incredible human being. He will be missed by all that knew and loved him. My prayers go out to his family.

I haven't known Bo too long but I have loved him ever since I met him. I was his neighbor in Marshall and he and I loved to joke with each other. He was a good friend to me when I lost my husband. Bo and Dorothy not only did their own yard work but always kept another neighbor's yard mowed for her. (She was a single divorced lady). He showed the love he had for the Lord. I will miss his sharp wit. God bless the family! Diann Hester

Deepest sympathy to Bo's family. Forest Oaks Church will not be the same without Bo's smile and hearty greeting. Memories of him will live on. Gene Rives Maurer, League City, Texas

Mr. Shipp was indeed a great man and a wonderful family friend.  I have so many fun memories of church gatherings and family visits.  He will be missed by all and it was a pleasure to have known him.

Bo was such a special special person to us.  His jovial spirit and loving manner always brought a smile to our faces.  He will be sorely missed by all. Bo, we know you are celebrating a beautiful life on the streets of gold tonight!  Tell our Savior for us that we will see yall soon!

Mr. Shipp was an example that we all need to follow, He Loved God First and His Family Second. He never met a stranger and if he did they were his friend for Life! We ALL will miss his Smile, Love of Kidding and the happiness he brought into a room.

Mr. Shipp was a wonderful man that I will never forget. He was my Sunday school teacher at Forest Oaks Baptist Church when I was in my preteens. He always greeted everyone with a smile, handshake, or hug. He will be truly missed.

Working with Bo was a pleasure many years ago.  I was a very young supervisor and he was very informative to me.  Now I am friends with Lisa, his daughter, at church.  Peace and comfort to all family and friends.

Many great memories with Bo at S W B T. Bo was a great craftsman and the kind of supervisor you wanted to work for.
