Our families have known each other a long time. We have shared joy and difficult times together. God has been there to fill and comfort our hearts no matter the circumstances. We know one day we will be together praising our Lord and Saviour. Billy was always smiling and bring laughter to a room. It has been several years since I've seen him but I was home visiting Bible Baptist Church with mom one Sunday and he came up smiling and gave me a big hug as if no time had passed. I believe that's a kind of greeting we will all get again one day. Find joy in the memories folks share and comfort that God will forever be with you. Praying for you, Donna & Lloyd Bruner

Billy was a dear friend from my Hilton Head and Atlanta days. I would visit and stay with him when he lived in Atlanta and he would have me in tears laughing at the stories of working as a server in what I believe was the "Top of the World" restaurant in Peachtree Tower. He was always a bright spot of sunshine and I treasure my time and memories of him.

- Debbi Whitney, Tallahassee, FL

As long as I live I will remember "Bubba" and his laugh. He is with our God now and for that I am thankful, though my heart still breaks. May the Holy Spirit cover Elaine, Joy and Debbie in peace during the days to come. May He comfort all of us who are hurting. I love you Billy!

I love how you act when suprised, like that time we ate Ice Cream and Mr Leopold showed up. Or when I called you and you thought it wasn't till next week I'd arrive. Or aunt Jimmy told you one of his stories. I love that. I hope it still happens up there considering who you now joined. I will always miss you and I will never forget you, Billy. All my love and well-wishes to you all.
