My deepest condolences to the entire family. May the fond memories in your heart keep you through this tough time. We are praying for everyone that Loved him dearly. I will truly miss Billy. I have so many fond memories of him and he always asked how my son Jaylen was doing. I will miss my little Kato!
May God bless you and keep you in his loving care.
I don’t know any of you but I knew Billy, he had a kind heart and I will miss him. I would often give him rides to his destination or help him to make a call on his insurance if he couldn’t hear them or didn’t understand what they were saying.
We were both Red Socks fans so we had that in common. He once bought me a ball cap, and I will always think of him when I wear it as I always have in the past.
Just wanted to let you know he touched my heart and I am sorry for your loss.. with deepest sympathy!! Pam
