I first met Billie and Craig 25 yrs ago, working at John’s Doggie Shop on 322. They soon became , not just my regular customers, but my friends. Billie was truly special and I was fortunate to have met her. She will be missed dearly, and remembered always! I’m sure she’s watching over all of us still, at least I hope she is! Love and condolences to her family ❤️

Billie and Craig were the first two we met in our new neighborhood. Billie reached out in friendship, taking us under her wing, as I found she often did. She was sweet and sincere, and I loved her kind heart. She had been a counselor for lost souls and that’s why she drew others out. Billie and Craig were still devoted to one another after 56 years. A lovely person to be around.

Aunt Billie was one of my favorite people in the world. She always spoke in a straightforward, enlightened way to me, even as a child. She just knew about people and the world and expressed it in her own very unique way. I will miss her grabbing my nose and telling me how cute I was as a child and handsome as an adult. Kind, funny and so wise. The mold was definitely broken with her. I love you always Aunt Billie and I think you knew that. I will miss your smiles, hugs and our deep conversations. Love always, Michael.
