Not sure what to say?

Been down to the cemetery to visit you and Shannon...miss both of you and hopefully God will give me the strength to finish my book Graceful Moments dedicated to both of you ❤ RIP

Billy was my uncle. He was a great man who always brought happiness with him wherever he went and that was certainly so when we had family get togethers. He was just about my favorite person as a kid, ALWAYS uplifting! I feel it was a shame i didnt get to know him as a man and get to enjoy his company as such. I saw him shortly after he retired and he was loving life and enjoying himself as much as he possibly could (he usually did anyways!). I was looking forward to getting to spend some...

I didn't know you had left us until one year after when my children went to visit Shannon's gravesite and saw your name there also. I have kept her very much alive in my heart and the hearts of my children that never really knew her. You both are now together again ~~ she will be happy to have her daddy back. Rest in peace...love you, Jolene

Today I saw Bambi....I asked her how Billy and Ray were.....I am devastated!
I saw him a few months ago, spent a few hours with him and he hadn't changed. So happy and full of life.
I've known Billy close to 20 years. We met thru good ol' Raymond Palomo, now raisin' hell in heaven together, back at the Caroussel Club on Perrin Beitel back in the day. One evening, after quite a few drinks, he asked me to teach him a few cajun sayings, since he always was impressed that I grew up...

My deepest goes out sympathy to all that knew and loved Billy, I lived next door to Billy and his family on Tiperary and went to school with him and his sister Patti at Rogers Jr. High. May God Bless you all in this difficult time

Barbara, I can see it now, Grandma, Grandpa, Momma, Aunt Mary, Uncle Johnnie, Bubba, Ross, John, Shannon and so many others that have gone on before us, all running to greet and welcome Billy home. What a sight that must have been. They at this very moment are having the grandest family reunion. You are so blessed to have three of the most beautiful, wonderful children. There are no words to express how I am feeling at this very moment. My heart is so heavy with sorrow. Know that you,...

Billy was the "surfer" & I was the "kicker" @ Highlands!! We went steady & what a fun time we had...always laughing. I still have all my (love letters) from him & have talked about him all through my life. He was a big part of my life in high school. A great boyfriend!!! I truly hope he had a blessed life & knows the Lord. We will all see his great smile & have great fun with him once again... What a great guy & what a great love in my life...All of our Blessing to his family & close friends.
