Earlier this month, we lost a remarkable, sweet, and unforgettable member of our community. Tripawd Billy’s legacy is one that will never be forgotten. His dad, Al, wrote to share the news:
We are truly grateful and counting our blessings for the wonderful 14 years Billy gave us. We could throw every positive word in the dictionary together and it wouldn’t be enough to describe the impact he had on all of us.
We take solace that he is with his sister Bella. They are a team for the ages.
He will always be in our hearts and he made the world a better place and all he touched a better person.

Billy is a lovable ham.
The surgeons-and staff that operated on him call him “handsome”
So for his chemo visits I bought him a t shirt that says “handsome”
They cracked up and Billy loved the attention.

I mean this when I say I’ve been blessed. Great family, true friends, lots to be grateful for. But the impact Billy has made on me is beyond words.
