Billy and Friendships

Ken Trivette mentioned how early in their friendship, Billy’s humility and others-centeredness showed up almost instantly.

“He would not just invite me to fish; he would always want to feed me. In figuring out times to get together, as busy as he was, he always deferred to my schedule, constantly asking ‘Will that work for you?’ ‘Is that the best time for you?’ ‘Is there a better place for us to meet?’

A fishing trip with Billy never meant a couple of hours on the bank—it was an all-day affair. Catching bait at daybreak, cleaning fish at dark, with the best stories, actually fishing, and fun in-between. It was evident he just enjoyed us being together.

Honestly, outside of my mom and dad, I have never had anyone pursue me quite like Billy and care for me while together, quite like Billy.”
