Death changes nothing...I still miss the sound of your voice, the wisdom in your advice, the stories of your life and just being in your presence. So, no time changes nothing. I miss you as much today as the day you died. I just miss you!!! Memories of you are forever etched in my heart! I love you forever and ever!

Merry Christmas in Heaven, my love. I miss you so much. Life was so easy when you were here with me. I think of you daily and even though I miss you so much, I find comfort in knowing you are at peace with the Heavenly Father. Until we meet again in Heaven...all my love.

Uncle Homie (is what I called him) was the youngest of his siblings. He was a couple of years younger than my mom so they were very close. Actually all the siblings were close. Uncle Homie would drop Todd and Troy off at our house after my mother told him she wouldn’t watch them. He would send them to the door and they would knock while he blew the horn and slowly drove down the street. My mother would be yelling at him while he screaming I will be back shortly as he snuck off to the race track. Only Uncle Homie LOL!

Happy Birthday,

Mr Slappy, you always had a smile on your face we would laugh about little things men say concerning honey dew lists we would have. Watching your sons grown into men was a treat esp when they would be swimming in the pool belly flopping….lol The impact Mrs. Slappy had on Chenise to think she was one of her first students now she’s a teacher. We thank you and your family for love and support through the years.

Being your neighbor was an honor being a friend to the family was priceless. Your calm demeanor and coolness is unmatched. Rest easy in eternal peace. We miss you. The Miller Family

Happy birthday dad it's been 5 years since GOD called you home and it feels like 5 days. The hurt I feel will never go away it becomes tolerable. I get through the grief by knowing you are not sick any more and you are surrounded by family. So dad you continue to rest until we meet in heaven. ❤

It's been 4 years without you....I didn't think I could make it 4 days...but by the Grace of God, I have. Life is and will never be the same. I have learned so much about grief and the toll it takes on you. I have learned that you never stop grieving, you never get "over it"...you get "through it". I think about you every single day. And I will until my last breath when I am reunited with you!
Love, your loving wife, Debra!

I cant believe it's been 3 years since GOD called you home. I know you are in a better place so that is what help eases the hurt but I still miss you. So until we meet again dad tell all the family hello. ❤❤❤

Cousin Bo; your beautiful smile and great personality will forever be missed. We knew that a good time would be had by all whenever you were around. Your laughter and your love for family and friends will forever ring in my heart. I remember many conversations that you and my dad had so please do not try to be so hard on him now that you both are together in heaven. I have no doubt that there is so much love pouring out of the gates of heaven. Our family has always been of love so family, our challenge is to carry the torch showing love as Bo and our other family that has passed on demonstrated . Bo, WE love and miss you! Happy Birthday!

There was one time he was in the choir stand and I was in the pulpit. First let me say we had this way of connecting no matter where in the church, during a comedic moment that many wouldn't even consider. This particular moment when we both noticed a comedic gem, we were the only ones in entire congregation who lost it. We laughed for about 4 minutes straight. I kept a bulletin over my face because we were both crying. He got up to sing and probably only sang 5 total words because he was shaking his head at me and we were laughing. We had a LOT of those moments

I feel blessed that I had the pleasure of meeting and getting to know Mr. Bo. My daughter started going to school at this great little daycare/preschool called 'Montessori Place" in 2003. Within a few years I was working with Ms. Debra in the office and that's when I also was introduced to Mr. Bo. He was such a laid back kinda smooth man! He always made me laugh! I was always in awe of how much he loved his family, especially his love for Ms. Debra. They had a special bond and are a true inspiration for me and my husband. 
Mr. Bo will be missed but he left a STRONG legacy so he will never be forgotten.

Bo was a comforting friend to me and an excellent "father" to my son and daughter. I loved the family game nights we had and I will cherish my last time with him. I carried dinner to him upstairs because he did not feel good enough to come downstairs fo game night.

Homer "Bo" Slappy was a Real MAN, HUSBAND and FATHER in the truest sense of each role. His wife Debra and 3 sons are testaments. I am so thankful for the influence he had as a father figure over my son. There is nothing more important than family and being a good person in life; feats that he mastered. The well wishes and attendance at his funeral reflected how well people thought about him. Hats off to you Bo!! A job well done.

Most people knew I called Bo "My Buddy". I was able to talk to him as if I knew him my entire life. He was such a nice and straight forward man. I will miss seeing him on our trips with The Sophisticated Sisters, Red Hatters group. May he rest in peace until we meet again.

Coolest uncle ever. I can still hear him singing "There's a brighter day ahead" and I believe it. What a legacy. Love you Uncle Bo.

The Beginning

December 29, 2015

I met Bo when I was 15 years old at Leland Baptist Church. It was not love at first sight, but he wasm my first love! He pursued me and through dating, we found out we had so much in common. 

I graduated High School in January, 1968 and we were wed in November, 1968. Some didn't give our marriage a chance, as we were so young...but our love still lasts today, even as he is in Heaven.
