Uncle Billy, I have fond memories of you when I was a child. Sunday dinners at Grammy’s and riding up and down in the elevator over and over and then finally making it to your apartment and visiting you… sweet memories! You always had soda for us kids and you always welcomed us to visit. How lucky we were to have you and Grammy living in the same building where we could visit you whenever we wanted. You will be missed <3
