Carrie and family,
I think about Billy on his birthday as we were born on the same year and day.
I remember him in blue jeans. I lived about 10 minutes by bicycle from his home as a student. But I don't remember ever riding over to his place as I would have to ride a short distance on Rt 43 a busy dangerous road.
