On Wednesday afternoon May 13, at Monticello Raceway, a
strong crowd of family, friends, and horseman were on hand for a winner’s
circle memorial to Robert Bo Beauregard, the popular horseman who passed away earlier
in the winter. On hand was his wife Marybeth, and his sons John &
Steven and other family members.
Robert was remembered for his good nature and humor, for
years he would dress up as Santa Claus for the annual Monticello Harness
Horseman Association Christmas party, always to the delight of the children. Bo
was a director for the Monticello Horseman’s Association, he was remembered as
being tough, yet fair.
The Memorial was truly a fitting tribute that personified
his body of work to the horseman and the community.
