Billy was known as Papaw to everyone, his door was always open. Billy helped raise kids other than his own. He didn't know a stranger! Billy was inventive, clever and imaginative. There was no need to buy a part when he could make it himself. He passed that skill onto his sons. It was an ingenuity seldom seen. Everyone loved his wit to the very end.
A celebration of life will be held by the family at a later.
