Keith “Bo” Sims went to be with the Lord on December 26, 2025 at his home in Blue Creek. He was born to the late Helen and Carl Sims Sr.

In addition to his parents he was preceded in death by the love of his life, Ms. Vonda Shore and his brother, Carl Sims, Jr.

Bo graduated from Morehead High school and went on to attend Fayetteville State on a football scholarship. Bo worked numerous years doing various jobs around Rockingham County. However, the job that best suited him was bringing laughter and joy to who ever came across his path. He was man like no other and did not hold his tongue. He was a living Legend.

Mr. Sims accepted Christ and an early age. As he would say, “Keep the Faith”.

Left to cherish his memories: one son, Justin Shore two grandchildren; Nahlia and Evelynn Shore, one niece, Dana Sims, best friends; Curtis Grant, Isaac Williams and Dick Williams and a host of other relatives and friends.
