So sorry to hear that Mr. Billy passed on. We really enjoyed going to Southside Baptist Church with him. Y’all are in our prayers.
Sincerest condolences Wanda and family.
Billy was a great friend to me and my family. He helped us in expanding our small family store into a full-service grocery store. He was the best! I tried several times to locate with no avail. I am sad he is no longer with us. Condolences to his family.
