We're very sorry to hear about Billy Joe's passing. We hope God comforts his family and friends. We had been friends since 1975 and we had spoken recently. We were looking forward to having dinner with Billy Joe and meeting Sandy on our next trip home to Northwest Arkansas. He was one of a kind and he will be missed.
