Gone but Not Forgotten

Billy set a lasting example for us young boy growing up in the rural South during the 1950's. He was a good friend, an excellent athlete and, an outstanding individual. He's made an enduring impression upon our lives. We were blessed to have known him and he will never be forgotten.

"And when our work is done,
Our course on Earth is run,
May it be said, "Well done:
Be thou at peace."
