To the family:

May he R.I.P. He was a great commander to work for and always a credit to the NOPD and City of New Orleans. More than that was the fact he was a good and honest man. He was the real deal for sure. I took pride in working for this man even though it wasnt for a long period of time. The gates of heaven opened quickly for him !!!!


Billy Wayne McGaha

We lost a friend. But Billy Wayne McGaha, not William he would often say, was more than just a friend. He was also a co worker, co-FBI-NA graduate, fishing and hunting partner to many of us. He will be missed by his family and all of his friends. Our prayers are for his family whom he deeply loved.

I was recently asked, "What do you think of when you hear his name"?
After thinking a while I said, " His always smiling face, his being a mounted police...

Billy, Yvonne, and their family are some of the nicest, kindest people we've ever met. Ted's memories of Billy are all fantastic ones -- many of them, not surprisingly, involving fishing! Ted can picture Billy on a boat on Toledo Bend, and on the back of Al Cahoe's boat in the Gulf of Mexico. How wonderful to know he lived a life surrounded by loving family.

Yvonne, we love you and your kids. You all are in our prayers.

Love,

Ted and Rachel Fenasci

To Billy Wayne's family:

When I was young I knew my Uncle Homer well, but I did not know Billy Wayne very well. However, I was proud to be his first cousin because of his role on the New Orleans Police Force, and simply because he was another McGaha who was contributing to society in a meaningful way. I recall that he was in fact an avid outdoorsman, and that he used to train beagles. Our sincere condolences to the family.
