See Condolences

My thoughts are with you Billy Ray, Joyce, & Leslie.

I have not seen Billy Bob since he grew up. I know he must've been a fine young man. I remember him as a little "toe-headed" kid, when we were just kids and played at my grandmother's house-Edna. May God Bless his family and give them peace and comfort during their time of sorrow.

SIS. JOYCE, BRO. LES OUR PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU, AND KNOW THAT YOUR LOVE ONE LIVES ON. GOD IS YOU R STRENGTH AND HE WILL SEE YOU THROUGH. WE LOVE YOU'LL

I just want to express my deepest condolences in your time of loss. I had the pleasure of meeting him and his family during one of his trips to the airport. O how he shined, the love he had for his family was so deep and so aparent. My prayers go out to each of you and may God comfort you during this time.

Yes, he was quiet and reserved. That is what indeared him to me. I so related to his reclusive spirit. And, his love for his families, and his love for all things four pawed, indeared him to me that much more. He has a sweet, generous soul that lives on with his sons Kip and Jake. Moreover, it was The Aggies, and, food! I reflect back on meals at his home, and at restaurants, that is where I saw him shine. That is where I saw his light. God Bless you my Brother. God Bless all who were touched by Billy Bob, and his most amazing time here spent on Earth.

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Im sorry im not able to make it. I always liked Billy Bob and feel bad for Kip and Jake. Im sorry for thier loss. If it wasn't for the situation I am in, I would be there.

I will always remember the quiet nature Billy Bob had and his silly , fun personality. I have many fond memories from the Lake house, birthday parties and picnics. ......Neither death nor life can separate us from the Love of God that is in Christ Jesus. You will be missed. May God comfort you all during this transition. Love and hugs, Jennifer & Richard Welch, James, Jesse, Sam and Katy Sue.

I will always remember Billy Bob's sense of humor, a reminder to us all to enjoy life. Billy Bob was an Aggie; he loved his alma mater, so rich in history and tradition. Once when he and Sarah were going to an A&M game, he said to look for him on TV. He would be the one waving the white towel. Since then, I think of Billy Bob every time I see those those white towels waving. Today as I watched the game on TV, I felt his spirit there, in the excitement of the crowd, in the joy on the fans' faces, and in the breeze caused by all those waving towels. I am thankful for Billy Bob's life, and that in more ways than we can count, he will live on in our hearts. We are better people for having known and loved him. God's peace and blessings upon all who are grieving the loss of this special husband, father, son, brother, and friend.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
