Billie Kidd, that was my pet name for June. I've had the privledge of having June in my life as a very young girl right into adult. He holds a heart if gold, never changing. He was always jolly but he also was not a pushover. He's a legacy in our family. Never will he be forgotten, always loved. My prayers to each brother. God bless.

To my dearest Uncle June. You were full of life and a MAJOR JOY to be around. Out of my 7 uncles you may have been the smallest but you were the one that did EVERYTHING BIG! You had a BIG HEART and you made a BIG IMPRESSION everywhere you went. There's only one "Hound Dog". You will truly be missed. I love you so much.
