Not sure what to say?

Hustler Gravitt's children were some of my favorite first cousins. Billy knew all of the old stories about his daddy, my daddy, and the Gravitt family when they were young and not so young and I so much enjoyed hearing about them. I once took a class at Virginia Commonwealth University with cousin Billy in Eastern Art History. Of course, Billy aced it. I remember Billy's artwork when I was a young lad and how everyone was amazed at it back in the 50's. Billy will forever remain in my heart.

I worked as a contractor for Bill and Beatley and Gravitt. Bill was a shining light. He will be missed.

So sorry to hear about Billy's passing. He was truly a great person, always had a smile for everyone.

I'm so sorry to hear this sad news and I am sending my thoughts and prayers to all those who hold him dear. Peace to all.

I had the privilege of having Bill as a client. He was such a kind and honorable person. He definitely made this world a better place.

So sorry to hear about Bill's passing. I worked with him at Beatley & Gravitt and I remember him as always being kind and funny.
