Dear Aunt Mollie, Audie, Wanda and Branda.
What a blessing for me to have Uncle Billy be a part of my life. I have so many memories of all of our fun times together, I will cherish them forever.
There was no doubt that he loved the Lord with all his heart as well as his family. What a glorious day that he's with Jesus and for us to know that someday we will all be together again.
Love and hugs to all of you.
