We are deeply sorry for your loss and will be in our thoughts and prayers. Love, Tim and Jeannie Hawkins.
Glenda, I am so sorry that Uncle Billy passed away. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I love you and Alex very much and know that you are going through a hard time. If there is anything I can do, please let me know.
I remember all our good times over the past 10+ years and am thankful for the memories. I thought about the time you and Billy decorated the trailer when Robert and I got married. The times I talked to you about meeting Billy, the picnic on Labor Day at Teressa’s, all the good and bad times we had through the years and will miss Billy very much. I thought of him on Memorial Day. Call me when you feel like it or just want to talk.
Love, Norma
