I met Billie many years ago when she married George and came to work at LifeStream! I was even responsible for the pot bellied pig when she retired! We did have some fun and laughs! Ive enjoyed keeping up with her over the years through cards and lottery! Ill miss being able to call and hear her saying Well, hello Carter. She was a jewel and I know being with Nan and Randy was heaven on earth for her. Im sure shes having one heck of a party with those who greeted her. Rest In Peace my friend, Judy Carter
Absolutely..She is missed. I’m sure they are swapping stories right now
Thank you Judy. We were blessed to be able to care for her and she will be missed by many.
