Oh Linda,  I'm so sorry for your loss.  I remember when you two were newly married.  Then came your children. 
We had many fun times together.  The memories make my Heart ❤️ go out to you and your loved ones.  The two of you were truly  like family to me.

Billy was truly a unique man whom I will never forget!  Some of my favorite memories of Billy are all the pool parties around his pool, whether family parties or church parties, and all the great conversations with him as we watched all the kids play.  He also knew his way around his grill!  :)   Billy has left an amazing legacy of faithfulness, incredible generosity, and a down-to-earth faith that impacted everyone who knew him.

Heather and family,

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your sweet daddy.  I know from hearing you talk about him what a special man he was, and how loved he was.  Thankful for the assurance that he is with Jesus now and you will see him again in eternity.  I love you and am praying for you all.

Billy and I “go back” to our weight-lifting days; quite likely from Kings Gym in Charlotte.   His dedication to the sport provided fame as a power lifter! He and his family bestowed upon me the privilege of providing medical and Orthopedic care throughout many years.  Down the road Billy was the skilled and trusted marble artist who assisted Janice and myself,  both at office and home.
Most importantly, Billy was one honest and sincere gentleman whose word and advice could be trusted! His memory will remain as valued.

Heather I’m so sorry for the loss of your daddy! He was such a strong man.  Sending my condolences to you and your family .

Billy was my brother at heart and one of the hardest workers I have ever had the privilege to work with. When he first started his business I was his first employee Billy Tommy and myself would do more work than any other six man crew anywhere. Then it was me and Billy and we were doing the same amount of work and nothing was going to stop us . He was the hardest working person I have ever seen. He did all of this for his wife and children so he could give them the very best. His whole life was for his wife family and grandchildren and he loved his workers just as well. All he ever wanted was his family well taken care of as well as his workers. If he could do that then all he wanted for himself was a new work truck every five years. He was a hard man at times but only when work was behind. I was around Billy for 37 years even though we had our ups and downs we would stand-by each other like brothers. When I woke up in the hospital he was the first person I seen. He was the greatest man I have ever had the honor of being around. I know He is with the lord and free of pain and looking down on his family with pride. I love you brother man and my mind will think of you every day Go rest high on your mountain brother
