My sympathy and condolences to the family and friends of Bo Newman. Bo was always very friendly and was quite influential in my life as I grew up. He taught me a lot about the bowling world and showed a lot of trust in my ability. His confidence in my abilities were invaluable. I have and will always remember the good times that were had at Valley Bowl. May Bo rest in peace.
