Marty, Susan & Del - Please know that we were shocked that Billy went down so fast. Lucy was crushed that she failed to get here to see him before he died. She will be unable to attend the funeral tommorrow, but know that you are in her prayers. If you need anything we can help with let us know. We have room for someone to stay at our house if the need is there.
