I am so saddened to hear about Billy. We grew up together as teenagers. He spent so much time with my nephew Tim Cox who passed away a few years ago. Howie Robbins was my teenage boyfriend back in the day and He, Billy and Tim were inseperable. Billy spent many nights at my house in Damascus and they drove my mom crazy with the 8-track tape, Bob Seger, playing full blast and Billy of course singing right along. He was such a sweet and fun person. I will always remember him and I wish the family the best and God bless you all.
