Sadly, Bo passed away, unexpectedly, at his home. He was born on November 12, 1938 to the parents of Clarence and Clara Aster Higginbotham. He was preceded in death by his father, his wife Juanita, a son Dewayne and a sister Billie Jean Denham.

He is survived by his mother Clara Aster Higginbotham, daughter Brenda Hodges and husband David. Bo was also the proud G-Pa of three grandsons Trevor, Bradley and Nathan. After graduating from Palestine High School, Bo briefly served his country by joining the United States Air Force. After his service, he went on to marry the love of his life, Juanita (Lively) Higginbotham. Together they shared 47 years of marriage. Bo worked over 40 years in the power plant industry working at Brown & Root and Fluor Daniel. Bo will always be remembered as a gentle man who loved his family and generous to all whom he called friend.

Condolence calls will be received from 6:00 to 8:00 P.M. Friday at Bailey & Foster Funeral Home.
