May God Comfort & bless you during this time. I often thought of Billie on Columbus Day. She was always a pleasant, gentle person with a great sense of humor, contagious laugh & beautiful singing voice. Will never forget her .

It was always such a pleasure to visit with Billie when we visited North Dakota. And she and Georgia took the time to help me with the family history. We remember her fondly. We are so sorry for your loss.

Billie was a very good friend of our mom, Esther Artz. They called each other often when Billie moved from Antler to Minot. Your mother was a very sweet lady.
