    Billie will be forever in my memories, from our childhood through our many years of love we shared. Some of my fondest memories are of us sitting at the table of Uncle Maley & Aunt Lorene’s having coffee and talking. Billie had the gift of making us all laugh with her great sense of humor. David & Marci, I thank you all for being a part of my life from David singing at Dad’s funeral to Marci & I having the opportunity to attend Business School together. Shirley and Joe, I think about you both a lot and Jo, I think about you also and wish we were able to share some time together. My thoughts and Prayers are with you all and God Bless you all. I love you all. Fran

    We are so blessed as to have had so many years with Aunt Billie — Amelia loved her so much and loved to sing with her and pray for her. We know she has received her blessings in heaven as she was such a blessing to us. Aunt Billie — enjoy your riches you’ve stored in heaven and we look forward to seeing you again! Luv — James, Dana & Amelia

    My sister Billie was such a kind hearted person and a most loving sister. I loved her dearly as does our younger sister Jo. Billie loved her son and grandchildren so much. She would have given her life for them. Her baby granddaughter Hannah was the light of her life in her present day. Her grandsons also but they are older now. they loved their Nanna too so much. David we love you and your family and want you to know it. Love A. Shirley
