Billie Jean was my friend. I met her in 2007. She helped out with things that I was involved in. I could always count on her to be there when I had to talk to someone that was honest and could listen. Perhaps that is what I will continue to miss the most-that she was always there. Her super power was the ability to deal with and settle down even the most unpleasant and grumpy people. Myself and others, saw her do this on occasions when we thought a person was about to get out of control. Billie Jean calmed them down-and seemingly with little effort. Miss Camarillo, you will continue to be sorely missed by so many. I will see you again in Heaven with Jesus. A picture of Billie Jean is attached. She is on the left side. She is pictured with an actress named Blanca Blanco. Billie Jean was the event coordinator for the Ventura County Educators' Hall of Fame Induction Dinner on this evening-in June of 2014.
