When I was dating Mardis Howle, we got his roommate Billy Brantley introduced to Neila. It was love at first sight and the four of us were inseparable. The rest is history. My father got to know and enjoy Billy. There was a deli, in Crestline, where men would stop and have a beer on way home from work. After they got to know each other well, daddy introduced Billy to the Lord! Billy was so kind and thoughtful and I loved his gift of storytelling.

I got to know Billy when Neila was dating him and I was dating his roommate Mardis Howle. We were all 4 inseparable. I was drawn to Billy´s kindness, thoughtfulness and his gift of "storytelling!" My daddy got to be close with Billy at a deli in Crestline where men would meet on their way home from work. The two of them got to be close and Daddy led Billy to the Lord!

Offering my deepest sympathy in behalf of the Brantley family in this time of bereavement. May the peace of God comfort and strengthen your during this difficult time.
