Billy and I dated back when he was a freshman at harrison and I was a sophomore. It was the first day of school. He was in football. He always had a sense of humor. Well as you know high school stuff don't last long And it's kind of funny and we ended up just being really good friends throughout high school. He was àlways well liked. I am really saddened by this. He was way to young. Prayers of comfort and peace to his family. Rip Billy Perkins

My condolences and prayers to you all. I knew William for years & had been out of touch with him for quite sometime, until we connected on Facebook. He was well liked by many who knew him & I know he will be greatly missed. RIP William!
