One of his favorite activities was spending quality time with grandkids. Billy was a faithful member who served as an usher and on the security team at Faith Baptist Church for 38 years. His love for the Lord was evident to everyone he encountered. He loved greeting others and spoiling all the children. He was known as the “grandpa of the block”. Billy loved the outdoors, whether it was hunting or fishing. He spent many years doing what he loved with his friends and family out in Colorado and all over Texas. His life stories captivated all who listened. Billy was a kind, comforting, and warm presence to all.
