Will miss her sweet smile and her reassurances that all was well with her in the short time we had the pleasure of knowing Willa. Debbie's and Ron's loving attentiveness always brought a smile to her face and peace to her soul.

Aunt Billie, you became a part of my life when Debbie and I became sister when you first brought her home and introduced her to me in my crib. You became my Aunt Billie and you will always be. You helped me through many things through out my life and I will be for ever grateful. I send Prayers to the family for Joyous Memories, Abundance Love and Forever Friendship. Love Eternally Pam
I was blessed to have Grandma Billie in my life, I was the "Spoiled" one for several years as I was the Oldest Grandchild. I loved my times with Grandma Billie and Papaw Jimmy at the house on Union Bower, Then the "House in East Texas" as I called it, and later in Little Elm and McKinney. Many a summer spent catching Box turtles and chasing fireflies or making candles and churning butter were spent in pure unbridled joy and wonderment with them.....Those were the best of times....Now comes the worst of times....the part where I failed them both.
I grew up and took them for granted , and very seldom visited. Not out of being mean or ornery...but out of assuming that I had all the time in the world and Id go see them next time...now Im 51 years old and I see I wasted all those next times and now there are no more.....and THAT is my regret to wear like an albatross around my neck....I pray Grandma and Papaw can forgive me....And that they KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVED THEM. I love you Grandma and I will never forget our Magical Times we shared.
With Love,
Joe
