I was very sorry to hear about Billy's passing. I worked with him at Brady Distributing Company in Charlotte many years ago. Billy was a fine employee and a great guy. I enjoyed his Facebook posts. My prayers will be with his family and his many friends.

I am so very sorry to hear about Billy. Myrtle, I am Christy Nelson (now Ramee) (Dowd and Ethel Nelson's daughter). Although I haven't seen you and your family for many, many years, I have thought of you often. Mother was so fond of you. I live in Colorado and don't get to Charlotte much anymore, but would love to see you. Wishing you comfort in your grief, and wishing you peace and happy memories. Christy

So sorry to hear about Billy. I first met him when I was 15 years old and began attending Durham Memorial Baptist Church and we were both active in the youth department. Billy was always the practical jokster and had a knack for making us laugh. Thoughts and prayers to his family.
