I was just going through some poems I wrote to Billy in 1970. Was cocktail waitress where he performed and often sang with his band. Billy introduced me to horses and we'd ride in AM after work. Also, loved riding on motorcycle too. We lost touch in 1971 when I began singing w/guitar in different venues. I'm so glad to have found this post on Legacy.

Hey Dad, I've been thinking about you a whole lot recently, more then normally, I just wanted to say so much has happened since I last wrote.

It set me into a very deep depression but I'm coming around and just wanted to say I miss you and have always loved you. I know most of the Heed's are all together now and probably cracking up as always. A great fun group. I...

Billy was an old friend, we lost touch when I moved to Texas. He always treated me like royalty at The Riverside where I was somewhat of a permanent fixture. Lots of memorable moments but the best was when he introduced me to Tammy Wynette, who I was a big fan of, while sitting across from her in Don´s restaurant.

Sitting here at work and thinking how much of a cool guy/father Billy was. I met his family in Laughlin. His son Alex and I hit it off immediately, I feel liked Billy and Leza loved me as I was one of their own and treated me no different. My greatest memory will be his amazing smile, chicken caesar salad and most of all his Iconic wave / Low and to the side.
