Dear Bridges Family, we were so sorry to learn of Bro. Billy's home-going; sad for your family and all his friends, but gloriously happy for him! He had a wonderful testimony for our Lord and we have some great memories of his uncompromising preaching and how it stirred our souls to reach the lost. Billy and Paige Bridges were both dear to us and we look forward to seeing them again-- perhaps sooner than we think. In Christ, the Bruce Collier Family

We were saddened to hear about Bro. Billy passing away. We lost Dad (Walter) 3 years ago. There must be some type of relief that your parents are together again.
We would love to hear from you guys. We have such fond memories of your family. Billie Jean you will always be special to us. Kari my oldest daughter will graduate from DBU in May with her degree in Counseling. I think about you so often.
Please let us hear from you.
Blessings on you as you remember how many people have been touched by your family!

Dear Billie Jean and family. Please accept my heartfelt sympothy to you during the loss of your father. My thoughts and prayers will be with you as you begin this journey.
I know that my dad was there to show him around, and I'm sure tell him a few stories!

Dear Bro. Mike & Mrs. Linda,
I was saddened to hear today of the passing of Bro. Billy, but also glad to know that Mrs. Paige & Bro. Billy are together again forever. What a wonderful love story the two are - and now they're at home with our Jesus. Please know that I am thinking of you all in your time of sorrow - and that I love you all dearly. You both hold a very special place in my heart that time will never erase!
Love in Christ,
Stacie Craft

WE SHALL ALWAYS REMEMBER BRO. BILLY FOR HIS STRONG STAND AND ALWAYS THINKING OF OTHERS. ONE QUOTE SHALL ALWAYS BE IN MY MEMORIES, "HE WOULD NOT BE AFRAID TO SWING OVER HELL ON A ROTTEN CORN STALK BECAUSE HE KNEW HE WAS SAVED." WE LOVED HIM AND PAIGE.
WE WISH WE COULD BE WITH YOU, BUT OUR PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
MARY LOU AND BILL
