Guestbook

  1. Candle 2Hillbilly was my neighbor and friend. He was different in a way that just made you smile. He was himself. From the time we met, he never forgot my birthday, and always walked down to give me my mail if the carrier put it in his mailbox. He bought me a street sign years ago and made the post it’s attached to the same time he bought his β€˜Hillbilly’ street sign. He always asked how my mama was doing when she was alive, and asked how my girls were after they left the house. He would stop and talk to me when I was doing yard work about many different things. Just a genuine friend who was always nice and thoughtful. I will really miss him sitting on his porch waving at me when I’m in the yard. I will always miss him. May he rest in peace.

  2. Candle 2I am so sorry to hear that Hillbilly is no longer with us. He was such a good friend. And we always had a good time laughing and cutting up. He will be missed by all his ole friends. I know him and Goober and my Dad are catching up. What a party.

  3. We are so sorry to hear this.
    Hillbilly was a character.
    Our thoughts and prayers for all his family and friends.
