Billy and "Freddie" Riley were the first to welcome the Barriers (Jim, Becky, Krista and Jason) to 103 Elm Circle in 1970. We all were blessed with the many happy memories we shared with the entire Riley and Patrick families. We will never forget the many times we spent with Bev, Billy, Brent and Kam around the Riley's pool, enjoying the fish, chili and barbecue cookouts. "Freddie" was always able to listen to all that foolish talk with a smile on her face!

Thank you for the best "Southern Hospitality" from a genuine "Southern Lady". We all miss her very much!
