Not sure what to say?

I still remember Billy...I use the tape he made me of a couple songs he recorded for me to teach my exercise classes. If your family would like a copy and other memories I would be glad to share them with you. You can contact me at [email protected]

Miss you dad.

At this time, please accept our deepest condolences in the loss of your beloved Bill who was a member of the Mello D's, a Cleveland based music combo with members Nick DeCaro, Frank DeCaro and Dave O'Rourke in the 60's. This photo has recently been included in the Rockn Roll Hall of Fame Museum Rolling Stone exhibit, and I trust all the musicians are fondly remembering their days together. Frank and Denise DeCaro

My sympathy to Billy's family. I knew Billy when I worked at Westlake Village. He entertained us alot. Billy made everyone feel special and always had a joke. He was always so happy. Sue Shanks, Strongsville, Ohio

Laura and Family So sorry to hear about the death of your father. I remember him playing for my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary back in 1990. Praying for God´s comfort. Tim Ponstingle and Family Mason OH

Billy played many, many times at the Rocky River Senior Center. Ballroom dancers loved him, and so did we. You have my deepest sympathy on the loss of your wonderful father.

We listened and enjoyed the sounds of Billy Kaye and his band for many years. We were members of the First Saturday Night Dance Club and danced to his music at the Masonic Temple on Euclid Avenue. Billy also played at other venues and we always looked forward to toe-tapping and gliding across the floors to his sounds. No DJ can come close to the sounds of Billy Kaye and his live band.

I have known Billy for many years and enjoyed dancing to his music all around the town. His sense of humor also added to his great personality. He would always pass out his specialized "calling card". May he rest in peace and may his memory be eternal. Allah Yerhamnah, Norma Saba Abdallah

Billy's music was enjoyed for many years. I met Nancy when we did a dance cruise with several couples.
