  1. Billy tonight I went on line to find some Bible verses because a dear Aunt of mine passed away. I found you and wanted to leave a comment. My aunt’s name is Mary Armstrong and if you run into her up there let her know her family loves her as I’m sure your family loves you as well. Rest in peace Billy. Aaron ArmstrongMendoza

    Daddy I love you and miss you so much? this just doesn’t seem real…..I’d give anything to sit with you one more time and watch dark side of the moon with you and listen to you tell me about all of your younger antics and family history. Don’t drive me crazy up there with your Pink Floyd ??

    My dear husband this has been a long lonely year. I don’t even know how much you wrap your strong arms and tell me everything will be fine. Your grandson was humming one of your pink Floyd songs. For the life of me I can’t remember what. He looked up at his mom and said poppy said good night momma. I love you Billy Joseph Kyner. I will see you in heaven
