Billie Sue was loved by everyone who knew her. She was a big part of the tapestry that made up Farifield Bay over many years. I feel blessed to have known her and to have been considered her friend. She was a friend to all.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Billie Sue's loved ones! During my life at Fairfield Bay, all of our out-of-town guests insisted on going to see Billie Sue. It began at the While Boar, then the Racquet Club and on to Indian Hills C.C. It was the general consensus that "Billie Sue was Fairfield Bay!" God Bless All!
To all of the McKay family, Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this sad time. May Christ's love be with all of you.
Bobby, Shelby and your families - My thoughts and prayers are with you as you heal from the loss of your mother. I know all the wonderful memories will help you through this time of sadness! Some of my best childhood memories are coming to Shirley and staying at Aunt Billie Sue’s house. She sure knew how to make sure we all felt welcome and had a good time!

I worked with Bille Sue at the Wild Boar when I was 16, & that was 42 years ago...she was so kind to me & I have never forgotten her sweet personality & her genuine kindness. Wish there were more people like her in the world.
My thoughts and love are with you Bobby, Shelby and all the rest of the family and relatives. I remember meeting Billie Sue for the first time at the Fairfield Bay Wild Boar Restaurant in 1972. She had such a nice smile and was so friendly as she took our food order. We had a lot of fun times over the years at family gatherings which I will always remember.
Our hearts and prayers go out to the family. We know this is a hard time for everyone.
We are sorry that we will not be able to attend services.
Billie was special to us and to our daughter Mary. She took her under her wings when they worked at FFB.
God Bless you.
