Billy was a year behind me at St. John's and a great young man. I had not seen him in years and missed him at the reunion but it sounds as if he stayed close to his faith and I will remember him in my thoughts and prayers.

As a member of the St John's Class of 1966 for a year and a half, I knew Billy for a short time, but from what I remember he was a great person. May he rest in Peace. My prayers are with you.

Craig and Kilma, I can't remember when I have been more sad to hear news from home. Albert told me Monday and it brought back all the memories that I have of your family. The first one that came to mind was when we were trying to brush out your Afgan pups, and Billy laughing at me. He would walk outside to see how much we got done, laugh and go back inside. It took hours to bruch out that Dog. I alway thought of Billy as being a lot older and wiser than me becuse he would say things to me that would make me think, He had a way of being short and sweet and I would think about what He said the rest of the day. He always had a smile on his face and His school books in his hands,running to class but always made time to say something nice to me. I want to offer my deepest sympathies, God Bless, with love, Bessy

The souls of the just are in the hands of God and no torment shall touch them. They seemed, in the view of the foolish, to be dead but the are in peace. Alleluia.' Never to be fogotten, Billy. Be at peace.
