Rossie,
Nancy and I were sorry to learn about Billy's passing. He was a long time friend from our days together at PPC. His leadership at our church will be long remembered by those who served with him on the Session. I recall his stories about dove shooting in Mexico and how much he enjoyed those trips. I think he enjoyed talking about the trips as much as the trip itself.
May God continue bless and care for you and your family.

Rossie, I was out of town when I received the news of Billy's death. As you know Billy was one of my very favorite friends and one that helped me early in my career. Billy was a man that always brought a smile to me when we would see each other. I enjoyed each and other time I would see the two of you. Billy and I would always reminisce of the days past with some laughter and seriousness at the same time. May god be with you as this is a real loss to you and to us all. I will miss Billy and...

To the Mitchell Family:
In this difficult time in your lives, may you find comfort in God's word, the Bible. James 4:8 encourages; "Draw close to God, and he will draw close to you".
My condolences,
