Born on February 26, 1940, Billy dedicated over six decades of his life to his career as a butcher in Brunswick, serving his community with dedication and hard work. He was a quiet man who cherished the outdoors and found joy in horseback riding, time outdoors and spending time with his grandkids.

Billy's life was marked by his unassuming nature, his dedication to his craft, and his deep love for his family. He will be remembered fondly by all who knew him.
