    My thoughts are with you all in your loss of such a fun, happy, entertaining guy. I remember him well when we were at KHS. Hopefully good memories will give you comfort and peace.

    My thoughts and prayers go out to Billy's family and friends. He was such a special, fun loving guy. I knew him many years ago when I was in nursing school. I spent many a fun weekend with the Elrods and Billy. He will be sorely missed by so many. Never forgotten! ❤️
