Marilyn, I still look for Billy in the parking lot of Harris Teeter. I would never leave until I had made sure I spoke to him. Such a sweet, sweet man. I hope you are doing well. I think of you often. Lots of Love! Jan

Marilyn, It has been 2 years since your husband passed away and I know at times it seems like yesterday and others it seems longer. Just like our Mom. I hope that you are feeling better and not in as much pain except for the special times that makes you remember certain things. It is great that you are still coming to church and singing in the choir and hopefully with the remodeled sanctuary we will get back on track with our regular services. So wanted to let you know that Annie and I was thinking about you at this time of the year. Stay strong and we are still here for you if you need a shoulder or a whipping post.
Bill and Annie

May God bring the entire family comfort in days a head. Have so many memories of both Billy and Roy growing up on James Island and playing midget football and baseball for many years. God has taken Billy home to a much better place but you will always have the memories to share, something no one can ever take away from you.

Billy was so much a part of David's life.He always said Roy and Billy were like brothers. They are the reason he loved sports so much. David is unable, at this time to remember his time with Billy, but he always shared with me his stories about him throughout our marriage. David was blessed to have had Billy in his life.
