It amazed me even then that with so many children Miss Billie was always ready to welcome a couple more. She had that amazing smile that she passed on to her children.

I use to come to your home as a young child with my grandmother. You were such a blessing to our town. The Lord, My God shall indeed reward you for the work you have done.

Reading Billie's obituary brought back a lot of beautiful family memories. I have not seen Billie in a while, but I remember a vibrant, lovely person. Her family was devouted to her - that is a testimony to a loving, caring Mom.
