I'm very sorry to hear of Billie Jo's passing. This must be very hard on everyone. I could tell by the way she talked about you all that she loved you all very much and her and Lillian shared a great mother/daughter relationship. Please stay strong and hold on to all your loving memories.

I will miss the time spent together as a family. Engaging in conversation full of laughter. Who else better than her to serve as my partner in the "lets make fun of mom" game. I will miss opening a gift from her. They were always so well thought out. Each time it was something special and unique. She really knew how to pick out something meaningful. But most of all I will simply miss her. It is selfish of me to want her to continue to live. It would not be the life I would want for her nor the life she deserves. Instead my sister showed us how to end this life's journey with strength, courage and grace. B you are forever in my heart.
