Billy is on a bank fishing now with a smile on his face :)

Warm Summer Sun

Warm summer sun,
Shine kindly here,
Warm southern wind,
Blow softly here.
Green sod above,
Lie light, lie light.
Good night, dear heart,
Good night, good night.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you

Billy will be missed more than he would ever know by many people. He touched many people with his kindness and thoughtfulness. Even during his illness he was thinking about and doing for others. Barbara and Jerry McDaniel thought the world of him and will miss his visits. He was a great friend. Faith and I will also miss the visits with Billy and will never forget his kindness. There needs to be more people with hearts like this man had. God Bless you Billy!
