I remember Big Sqeak used to harrass
me and Ben Butt when he'd walk by our
houses. I remember watching him play
baaeball, too.
goodbye my dear brother
I am so sorry. I was just sitting beside him at the last Arkansas game. It was an honor to know him.
I'll miss the "Big Squeak" - he made me laugh big time whenever I saw him. There is a lot to remember about Billy, but what impressed me most was how far he could hit a "cork ball". He was a great baseball player too and probably could have gone pro without all of the back problems. Rest in peace cousin - I won't ever forget the fun times.
I am so sorry to hear about Squeak. i saw him about 11 months ago and sent a Barbequed Boston Butt home with him to enjoy.
