I am so sorry to hear about Billy. I remember him and Donald from high school and have thought of them often. Glad to see he had a full life and family.

We all grew up playing baseball in any vacant field we could find. All of us kids gathered everyday and did everything under the sun, at each other’s houses. One year Billy & I didn’t have dates for the prom so, he asked me to go as friends and I did. My Mama cries every time she mentions Billy! She says Billy & Donald were always there for her & Daddy. He was like one of our cousins. You will be missed by everyone!
