Billie loved the Lord, valued family, and rejoiced in her grandchildren. In addition, she loved playing cards and board games with her family and friends~at times being somewhat competitive. She was unbelievably kind and compassionate, always putting others before herself. She was known as the life of the party and an incredible hostess with a quick wit and wonderful sense of humor.
