Billy was prematurely taken from us due to a traggic auto accident. He passed away on Friday, September 4, 1987. His death was the second of our junior year and was as devestating as the first. It was hard to imagine that another one of our class mates had passed away at such a young age.
Remember the twinkle in his eye and his mischevious grin? Makes me smile.
Please take a moment to remember his tenacious spirit. If you have any fond memories of Billy to share with your classmates, we'd be grateful.

I was in school with Billy since 1st grade! He was always a "pistol". (smile) As tough and rebellious as he seemed to be on the outside, I think that Billy had a soft spot. His curious grin always made me smile... and he always had that devilish twinkle in his eye. He could always do something to put a smile on your face.Miss u Billy!

I remember Billy from way back in Dublin School - up till his death, Billy ALWAYS won the marathon runs we did around the 4 corners of the back playground in dublin *( Remember each corner had a " backstop fence" and during PE Mr. Priest often made us run 4 times around the quarter mile trek. Billy always came in first...I could honestly say Billy was probably the toughest guy too. he was always courteous and straight forward .. but took no BS from nobody. I respected him for that. He came by my house a few days before his death in his grey 76' hatchback mustang... we laughed and joked that day and we both had just come back from White lake where we had been swimming with friends.. that is my last memories of him as that same car carried him to his tragic death a few days later ... RIP Billy ...I'll always remember you.Jeff Smith
