I have so many good memories of Billie. She always had a smile, and she was always happy to see everyone. I used to love to look out at her while I was leading singing. She would have Charles by the hand, have her eyes closed, and be singing with a huge smile. She was loving every minute of it. I appreciate Marsha for bringing her to service a few weeks ago. It was so good to see her again. I know that she is receiving a wonderful reward now that she has gone to her eternity with Jesus. I’m sure that her smile was the biggest ever as she heard those wonderful words, “Well done thy good and faithful servant. Enter in!”
She will always be remembered fondly by so many.
To my friend Jeff: You have my sincere condolences for the loss of both your parents in such a short time. I haven’t seen you in more years than I care to count, but I think about you all the time. That’s especially the case now.
I remember Billie from when she worked at Wal-Mart. She always had a sweet smile and she loved to talk to everyone. My mother worked at Wal-Mart also in the fabric and craft department for 15 years…she passed away December 2020 84 years old. They were friends. Billie will be missed.
Marsha, I’m sorry for your loss. Your mother will be missed by all who knew and loved her.
