What can I say about such sad news?  I remember the young boy who grew to me a man - whose family lived down the street.  May sterling lessons be learned from your life.  Prayers!

Prayers to your family, especially my MOM! May you rest in peace as well as those you leave behind!

Farewell old friend we had some good times ,I wish we could have had more time. Your friend always Avery

I love you Billy....I wished I would have come clean about running down the battery in your car that was parked between the trees next to the carport at our home in Kountze.  Yeah it was me.  When you went into the Army you left your keys in the car and I got in there and pretended to drive around, I figured out how to turn on the ignition so that the radio and 8 track would work.  I listened to your Neil Young "Harvest" tape over and over...."old man take a look at my life...I'm alot like you", Heart of Gold, Christopher Robins ect...  Wow..fun times! lol.. and I never said I was sorry for wrecking  your plastic models you use to work so hard on.  I had climbed up on the book shelf where you had them displayed, I wanted to look at the monster models especially  the "Creature from the Black Lagoon, Dracula, Wolf Man, the Mummy".  I lost my footing and as I was falling backwards I grabbed the side of the shelf but it was not secured to the bottom cabinet.   It was a 6ft drop,  I hit the floor hard and down came the shelf on top of me and all your models crashed around me.  You never said a word about it....thanks for knowing it was a total accident!  You were so patient too when I use to listen to your Beatle albums on the stereo in your room.  Guess you appreciated your little sister's interest in good music!   It was fun to listen to you and your friends have jam sessions too!!  You were crazy funny and loved watching cartoons...especially the "Roadrunner"...your laughing made me laugh!!  I also remember how fascinating it was watching you draw....You were so very talented!   Billy I will miss you and I am heartbroken.  I love you...see you on the other side.

I remember the good times in high school. I'm only sorry we did not keep in touch. Prayers go out for all the family

Rest In Peace sweet brother.............you were so loved.........you will be so missed.........xoxo

I wish I'd known you, Uncle Billy. I wish so many things, but mostly I pray you are at peace now.
