I really hardly knew Billy, maybe talked a few times at Alexanders.I felt compelled to go to his wake yesterday and as I said a prayer at his coffin I felt my eyes tear up,I paid my respects too his three sons and left feeling so sad.
I guess this should explain what a wonderful guy the world lost.

I will always remember the kind man Billy was. Growing up the summer tradition involved going to the big Aprile cookout to play scat and horseshoes at Arnie and Betty's and seeing the family. Billy was always smiling and friendly and treated everyone with respect. He was a great man and will be missed - I'm so sorry for your loss. Rest in peace.

Billy I remember when we were kids at Aunty Terry's fourth of July cookouts with you and Gene, Laurel and Terry Ann... I remember Aunt Priscilla and your Dad and going to visit at your house. I remember those big Mercury Marquis you had. I'm sorry we all lost track of the family connection. I forgot you became a police officer. I'm shocked to hear you have passed. Rest in Peace Bill.
