Billy Boy. You surely will be missed! You always came to us with a smile on your face, even when things weren't going so well. You always brought a smile to my face and I will always remember you as one of my favorites. I know you are whole and healed in Heaven! God Bless you and your family!

Grandpa, I was not super close to you in life, but I do know that you were always a nice man and you were always smiling when I saw you all the way to the end. I know you are being treated well because thats what you deserve. You are at peace I hope and I hope you found everything at the end that you were waiting for. I will not be able to make it to your memorial but I feel you will be with me always and you know how I feel. I love you and I hope you watch over to see my family one day and I know we will see eachother again one day.

Love always, Jenifer
