Not sure what to say?

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

Billie Wayne was a great guy with a big heart. Rest in Peace Billie Wayne.

Loved growing up with Billy Wayne and family. I’ll never forget the two week camping trips at Sam Rayburn over the many adolescent years. Hanging out at Uncle Bill and Aunt Fran’s home were fond memories. Life marches on and I’m thrilled that Billy Wayne found happiness and fulfillment with his precious family. May The Lord bring you comfort and fond memories in these sad times. He fought the good fight. We will meet again.

All I remember are the good times we had growing up.

Billy Wayne was always a gentle soul from the first time I ever met him as a young child, about 6 years old I have been his aunt , married to his uncle Sammy for 61 years. I remember him playing outside in the wooded area, then playing sports in high school and then going off to college I always enjoyed sitting around in family get togethers listening to Billy playing his guitar and singing When he left to go to college he continued to live his life in the Marshall area with his children...

Karrie, I'm so sorry for your loss of Billie. I didn't know him very well, but I do know how much you love him. Saturday, I have out-of-town guests in my home and won't be able to attend his service. But, please know I love you very much and that you are in my prayers.

So sorry to hear of Billy's passing. Billy was a great friend and will be missed by many. Billy was an extremely talented musician and one of the nicest persons you could ever meet. Love and Healing Prayer for the his family and friends.

Billy Wayne was my cousin and I have many fond memories of him. He was always so sweet and kind. We celebrated many holidays together and I especially remember the many Christmas holidays our family shared.
I also remember him playing his guitar and singing at our grandmother’s funeral. He was so talented!
Billy Wayne will be missed by all who knew him. We know he has claimed his glory and is rejoicing in heaven with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Looking forward to a...
