Robin and Danny, We love you and praying for peace and comfort during this most important time. Uncle Billy was a dynamic Rock in our family and I appreciate all the lessons, laughter and jokes. My fondest memory was coming home from college and he asking me can I afford to eat more biscuits. I was too skinny. (Lol) My Uncle will forever be in my heart through the good times and laughter.
