Billy Cannon

Loved this man and how he treated everyone. I was so lucky to have worked with him at BAPCO.

We are very sorry to hear about the passing of Mr.Cannon. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, we will miss his smiles and sense of humor and the homemade cookies that he so thoughtfully baked for Ms. Kay's visit. May God keep and comfort all of you.

Katie,
When I heard about Billy I couldn't believe he was no longer here. I
remember all the good times Hugh and I shared with both of you when we worked together. Some days it seems like yesterday and others seem like an eternity. I wonder what Billy and Hugh are doing in Heaven together.
Some day we will know and rejoice in the Lord with them.

To the friends and family of Mr. Billy Cannon: As others have said I cannot express the profound sadness I felt when I heard of Mr. Cannon's passing. He was a force and a presence at BAPCO in a way that won't be seen again. He touched many lives, and he was never too busy to offer a smile and greeting. God bless you and keep you.

Kaye, God bless you during this time. Susie and I were deeply saddened with the loss of Bill. He was a wonderful person. We will make a donation on Bill's behalf to the American Cancer Society.

Kaye- Billy was a special man to so many. BAPCO has lost a legend this week. I feel so fortunate that our paths crossed for so many years. I have so many great memories of my days while I was working for Don Perozzi and Tammy and Teresa were working for Mr. Cannon. I will continue to keep you both close to my heart. May God be with you and Diesel during this time. Love, Linda

Bill was a true mentor, teacher and friend. My best days were working for Billy and Dick at BAPCO. They both taught me so much. Kaye, I'm glad I had the opportunity to see you and Bill in BR. His smile will shine on forever.

Dear Kaye:
A truly great man is no longer with us. He made so many people feel like they were part of his family. He was the end of a great era when he retired from BAPCO because he knew the business inside and out and was truly a "people person". He always knew that there were people with families behind the headcount numbers. He could tell you that you weren't going to get what you asked for and still make you feel great about it. What charisma he had. He will be missed! You are in...

Dear Kaye & Diesel- Sandy and I have known Billy at least 35 years,and have known you both since the early 80's in Blowing Rock. I will never forget Billy cutting his lip while lifting my mattress up stairs, and my asking for his assurance that he didn't bleed all over my new carpet.Then you took over the furnishing with Billy supervising as usual.Our visits to Blowing Rock will never be the same without my buddy,but then I would have never known about BR without him.In all the years I have...
