Bill and Patty,

I am so sorry to hear of your loss of Billy. Bill I worked for you many years ago at Business Equipment and Systems. I remember you saying one summer that Billy spent his summer days trying to unlock the code on the satelite tv to watch the channels that he wasn't supposed to.

Just know that you all are in my prayers.

HE WILL BE HIGHLY REMEMBERED.I WORKED WITH BILLY FOR SEVERAL YEARS,AND WE SPENT MANY NIGHTS ENJOYING LIFE. WE SPENT A SUMMER AT BUSH GARDENS AAND KINGS DOMINION,AND ALL THE NIGHTS WE SPENT RIDEING IN HIS CAR LISTENING TO MUSIC AND WINKING AT THE LADIES, THOSE WERE GOOD TIMES . ONE THING I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER ABOUT BILLY IS THAT HE WAS A SHARP DRESSER AND LOVED HIS SUITS. HE WILL ALWAYS BE MISSED AND MY PRAYERS GO OUT TO HIS FAMILY ( R.I.P. BILLY) JOHN COUSINS

Bill & Patty,
I don't know the words to help. I just wanted to say that Sandy and I will pray for you, in your grief and sorrow. God Bless you.

Everyone who met Billy was touched by his humor. His smile was infectious!

Hello Mr & Mrs Ennis, my heart is so broken to hear of Billy. I worked with him at Burlington. I adopt all the young people and give them a little advice on life. I would alway praise him on how well he dress to be a young man. He made a certain sould when he walked and I alway knew it was him. Beford I turned around, I would say that my Billy and he would smile and say Hi Ms Connie. God Bless, I know I will see him again. Love you.

We were so sorry to hear about the loss of your son. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I was very sorry to hear of Billy's passing. He and I went to PH together years ago and I ran into him last summer. He was definitely the classmate that kept us all laughing. My condolences to his family.
