I am sorry about Billy's passing but he is in a better place. He was a great man very kind and sweet. He served well in town council and as a firefighter, he was at station number two and my dad is a life-time member. I also know him through by grandmother because she worked at the flower shop. I have many fond memories of Billy. I wanted to express my condolences to the Obenchain family.

Chris worked with Billy on several project for the fire dept., including hose nozzle research. When Billy retired, I have heard Chris say many times, whenever the firefighters...
