I will forever be grateful that we were able to spend quality time together sharing memories when you came to visit prior to your passing. Even though we shared a long-distance relationship for many years, we were truly blessed. I miss your genuine smile and loving heart. You will always be my favorite brother!

No matter how many years it’s been since he passed away, there’s not a day that goes by that I don’t think about him or miss him. He was the best uncle anybody could ever ask for. All he did was care and he was so much fun to be around. I miss him so much

UB, you were the closest thing I had to a dad. You were always someone I could talk with and I will always treasure every moment we shared. I am so very thankful that life brought me and my boys to Colorado so we could be close with you. You'll always be my twin "Bob", in my heart and mind oxoxo

I met Billy through my son, Michael. I knew from day 1 that he was a very special person. He was compassionate, loving, and the most honest person I knew. We even talked about living together, as friends. One of a kind, taken advantage of too much. I will truly miss him

Billy always brought a smile to my day & love to my heart. I'll remember him most for his generous soul, his willingness to help others, his thoughtfulness and his devoted love for our Mother. He will live in my heart forever - my brother and my friend.
