Uniform bounds on growth in o-minimal structures

We prove that a function definable with parameters in an o-minimal structure is bounded away from infinity as its argument goes to infinity by a function definable without parameters, and that this new function can be chosen independently of the parameters in the original function. This generalizes a result in a paper of Friedman and Miller. Moreover, this remains true if the argument is taken to approach any element of the structure (or plus/minus infinity), and the function has limit any element of the structure (or plus/minus infinity).
