Not sure what to say?

We all had so much fun at Grandfather and Grandmother 's home , . I .have some wonderful memories of all of My Daddy's family and of the good times we had as children . Susan I liked you the first time I met you .You were so nice and are now a gracious lady. I hope that you and your family are all well .I just wanted to light this candle in Billy's memory and to say I am so sorry for you having to lose Billy .

I've always thought of Billy as my hero. He saved me from a man trying to attack me in 1982 or so. I hope the last thirty years were good to him. I know he rests with the angels.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I worked with Billy in the securities industry in the 60's and 70's , also baby sat Wes, Claire and Keith. May Susan and all of the Neighbors family find comfort in knowing how much Billy meant to the Bama Nation and everybody else who knew him.

My Condolences To The Neighbors Family,
May the God of all comfort be with you through this difficult time, rely on God for strength.(Ps. 46:1)

Billy Neighbors family, I was truly saddened by the passing of such an icon of Alabama football, and such a likeable,forthright man. I am the brother of Shelby Nelson, and thus kept somewhat informed about Billy and your family. He will be much missed; your family has great memories to treasure. Our prayers and love are with Susan and the Neighbors family.

May the God of comfort be with the family and friends during this time of distress.

May God comfort you and keep you close.

Many prayers to the family in this time of grief.
