We are very sorry for your loss. Our grandfather, Oliver Billingsley, was very proud of his Billingsley family and loved Early very much. He loved all of Early's children- Jennie, Dawn, Jim, Bud and David. David was a very nice man and we are sorry we are unable to attend the services. Julie Blan, Keelie Floyd, and Melanie Stout (Norma Ogle's children)
