Our thoughts and prayers are with you, dear family. Was so very sad to hear of Billie’s death. Have known the Skeens family for years, since my cousin, Mary Ann, married into your family. Please be comforted to know that our hearts ache for your loss, and may God comfort you in the coming days as you try to heal from that loss. Sending love and prayers to each of you.
