Aunt Billie and Uncle Buster were important to our family. We tried to go see them as often as we could. Jack loved all of his aunts, and we wanted our children to know them. They really showed a lot of love to our children. Our boys, Daniel and Joseph were always fascinated with Uncle Buster's war stories. Aunt Billie was so committed to Uncle Buster, and loved him very much. Aunt Billie always had sweet treats for Uncle Buster and the children. Our children always liked to see their blackberry garden and all their animals. We will all miss Aunt Billie and Uncle Buster. We appreciate Aunt Dez and Juanita for always being there for Aunt Billie. That is what family is all about. Love, Jeanie Watson

We will miss you, Aunt Billie, very much. My fondest memory of visits to yours and Uncle Buster's home was not just the pastries that satisfied any sweet tooth, but the many poodles (it seemed like a hundred of them)you cared for like they were your children. I remember when 'Lil Abe was about 4 years old and wanted play with them. You said to sit in the middle of the floor and let them come to you. He did so and suddenly he disappeared in a sea of poodles. You could see only a little bit of Abe but could hear his giggles coming from beneath all the licks and wet noses. We know you are with all your loved ones that have gone on before you and are now happy again. We will miss you!

We loved Billie very much. Buster had beautiful girlfriends in the years he was dateing, but when he met Billie he knew that she was the one for him. He loved her very much. When I met her, I thought was the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. I said she was the one for Buster. I can remember the wonderful fried pies she baked. We loved Billie from the time we met her.Buster & I are first cousins. His Mother and my Mother were sisters. I always called them on Thanksgiving Day each year, and I am so grateful that I talked to Billie this past Thanksgiving Day. I send her family our deepest sympathies, and we will all miss Billie very much.

Having Aunt Billie in our family was a true blessing. She always found something to be happy about, regardless of the situation. Since she had been in the nursing home the last two years, I was able to visit her regularly to talk, have coffee, and just enjoy her company. She was a very special lady who always brightened up when I told her how pretty she was. We will miss her so much, but she is celebrating her 90th birthday today in God's glorious presence with her husband, mother, father, and her precious sisters who were there to greet her. Love, Gary and Glenda Johnson

Aunt Bill and Uncle Buster were one of my favorate. I always looked forward to Aunt Bills candy she fixed, especially a Christmas time. She always had a treat for us anytime we visited. Uncle Buster was always coming up with something funny and Aunt Bill would have to "get onto him" with a smile. He and Aunt Bill were always together. He often refered to her as "Miss Queen". I think they were the perfect couple. She relly missed him when he died. I mowed her place after Uncle Buster got sick. She would ofter sit on the front porch and wave me in for a glass of ice water. After I finished mowing I would sit on the porch with Aunt Bill and Prissy(her special little poodle) and we would talk about whatever came to mind. I'll always remember those warm summer days sitting on the porch with Aunt Bill. She was a sweet, kind, gentle, christian woman who really loved her church. I will surely miss her.

Me and Billie have always been close from childhood until now. She had beautiful red hair, and I knew no one would push me around at school, because she always took up for me. Then as we grew up, our first jobs were at the Coed Cafe in Arkadelphia, Arkansas. We shared our ups and downs, and we were insepartable. Then came our marriages, we managed to live close to each other also. She loved my boys as her own and spoiled them pretty much, but that suited me just fine. She is a very special sister, and I miss her very much, especially our trips back and forth to our Church together. She loved her church family.

Billie was a special sister. For the past two years she was at The Clairmont, Longview, Tx, I visited her each day. I will miss our afternoon coffee and watching the Cowboy games. She was loved by everyone. She always had that great smile. Buster called her Miss Queen Bee. She was indeed a queen. She had beautiful brown eyes and when we told her, she would say, she had "Papa's eyes. She received a plaque as "Resident of the Month" the first month at The Clairmont. When Billie was born, daddy named her William Octava. He wanted a son so bad. Then we called her Billie. She was indeed daddy's boy. She followed him hunting & fishing. We were all taught to use a gun and to bait our own fishing hooks. I remember when daddy taught me to use a gun, it went off accidently (my fault) and barely missed my foot. Daddy just laughed.Billie made my wedding dress when I married Ray. It was beautiful. We enjoyed eating lunch together each day. She has been such a joy to me. She is with Buster, the love of her life. Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His Saints.

Aunt Bill was always one of my favorite Aunts. When I got my first scooter I could ride to Turner Town and Aunt Bill and Uncle Buster were always glad to see me. In those days the only dog they had was Pee Wee, how they loved that dog. The reason I'd show up there alot was because of Aunt Bills cooking, mainly her deserts. There was always pie or candy. She was the best cook. Aunt Bill was William Octavia Foshee and rightly named she could do anything with a hammer, saw or scewdriver. My oldest daughter, Missy, reminds me of Aunt Bill because of her love for her dog. Alicia, my yougest daughter reminds me of her because of her mechanical abilities. I cherish my memories and will never forget her.

My heart is sadened by the loss of Aunt Billie. I have so many wonderful memories of going to her house. She was warm, kind, loving, and always had some kind of treat to give me. When I got married she sent me a beautiful afghan that I still have and use to this day. I am so glad I got the chance to know this remarkable lady and have the memories that I have of her. My Granny (Jaunita) would take me to visit her at the gas station and that was always fun for me. I think I inherited my love of dogs from her. I used to love to go and see her many beautiful dogs that she pampered and loved just like she would a child. She will be greatly missed by her sisters, neices, nephews and all who knew and loved this great lady.
