So sorry to hear of Billy's passing.  Always had fun with him at Senior Softball.  He will be missed but fondly remembered.

Dearest Ella,
Just wanted to say how beautiful the service was today.  The minister's eulogy was a perfect picture of Billy. I know that it was not an easy time for you and the days ahead will be a challenge as you take care of business and adjust without your beloved. Sitting in the Chapel, I remembered so many good times that our families had as children growing up,  And I know that your memories will flood your soul at just the right time to help you face that moment.  I love you and cherish our friendship.

Joannie,
My love to you as you walk the path without your brother.  May our God bless you and keep you until He comes for us and we meet them in heaven.

Love to you both,
Wanda Shoemaker Stewart

Our sincere condolences to you Aunt Ella we all know how much he loved you and Joan we all know how much you will miss your big brother.  We love you both and you are in our prayers.  Rest in peace Uncle Billy, hope you are busting that softball out of the park and sliding into home!

Ella Marie and Joanie, keep all of your memories close to your heart. Take them out one by one when you need help getting though the day. They will always be apart of you. Billy will be waiting for you just on the other side of the moon to walk with you the rest of the way. Love you all.
lynda and Donnie Klasel

It has been years since I spent anytime will Billy but I do remember the good times we had as cousins. I remember him as a good guy and I am sure he still was. My sincere condolences from me and my entire family.

Ella and Joan, So very sorry to learn of Billy's passing.  All of us who knew him through the years know he was such a good man, son, husband, father and brother.  I know Aunt Velma and Uncle Raymond and Elizabeth welcomed him home and lots of Shoemaker laughter is being shared with the others who have gone before.  Prayers, love and sympathy are being sent your way.  Cathy Shoemaker Bailey

My sincere condolences to all who will miss him so much. I will never forget his smile!

Please accept our sincere empathy in the loss of Billy.  While we have walked in similar shoes, we cannot walk in your's as you deal with his passing.  You are in our thoughts as you deal with the loss today and hope that those happy memories fill your thoughts in the days to come.  Rick and Sandy Traylor
