I am so sorry to hear, my thoughts and prayers are with the family, I will be unable to attend the memorial service, due to prior commitments.
sorry to hear about Uncle Billy our prayers and thoughts go out to you
One of the best friends we have ever had the honor of knowing.
A man who would give you “the shirt off his back” even if it was his only shirt.
We feel blessed to have known Billy. God chose to take him from us too soon but his suffering
is ended.
So sad to see you pass Billy. Rest well.
